When at equilibrium, which of the reactions below will shift to the right if the pressure is increased and the temperature is kept constant?

a

2SO3(g) ↔ 2SO2(g) + O2(g)

b

2CO2(g) ↔ 2CO(g) + O2(g)

c

2H2(g) + O2(g) ↔ 2H2O(g)

d

2NO(g) ↔ N2(g) + O2(g)

Increase in pressure of an equillibrum reaction favours the side with the lowest number of mole...so option C is correct

option C is correct... Note: when increasing pressure in a reaction it depends mostly on non gases. Hence, applying pressure in a reaction which will result in gases will therefore be lost to the surrounding.

Increase in pressure favours the side with lesser volume and vice versa

yeah c is the right answer man.

C - correct

C is correct
increase in volume= decrease in Pressure
decrease in Volume= increase in pressure

According to d gas laws.. Pressure is inversely proportional to volume. Therefore increase in pressure would bring about a decrease in d volume. Then d equation wit d forward reaction dat has d least mole is d answwer which is Option C.
