What is the effect of decreasing the volume of the container in the reaction.
`2C(s) + O_(2)(g) ltimplies 2CO(g)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

By decreasing the volume of the container, the number of gasesous moles per unit volume will increase. According to the Le Chatelier's principle, the equilibrium will be shifted in the backward direction the number of moles per unit volume will decrease in that direction.
