Assertion (A) : For `PCl_(5)(g) hArr PCl_(3)(g)+Cl_(2)(g)`, if more `Cl_(2)` is added the equilibrium will shift in backward direction. Hence, equilibrium constant will decrease.
Reason (R) : Addition of inert gas to the equilibrium mixture at constant volume does not alter the equilibrium.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
