Question

The exothermic formation of ClF 3 ​ is represented by the equation Cl 2 (g) + 3F 2 (g) ⇌ 2ClF 3 (g) ; ΔH r = -329kJ. Which of the following will increase the quantity of ClF 3 in an equilibrium mixture of Cl 2 , F 2 and ClF 3 ?

TestHub · Accepted Answer

Explanation:

Which factor will increase quantity of ClF₃

Cl₂(g) + 3F₂(g) ⇌ 2ClF₃(g) ; ΔH_r= -329kJ.

Concept:

This Question is based on Le-Chatelier's Principle

Solution:

1.On removing Cl₂ , eq^m shift backward.

2. On increasing temp. eq^m shift backward. Where heat is absorbed.

3. Adding inert gas at constant pressure will increase volume and eq^m shift backward where gaseous m moles increases.

4. On decreasing volume eq^m will shift forward where gaseous moles decreases and quantity of Clf₃ will increase.

Final Answer: Option: 4
