Q1

The effect of addition of helium gas to the following reaction in equilibrium state, is:

\({\mathrm{PCI}}_{5}(\mathrm{g})⇌{\mathrm{PCl}}_{3}(\mathrm{g})+{\mathrm{Cl}}_{2}(\mathrm{g})\)

[JEE Main 2023, 1 Feb (Shift 2)]

a

the equilibrium will shift in the forward direction and more of \({\mathrm{Cl}}_{2}\) and \({\mathrm{PCl}}_{3}\) gases will be produced.

b

the equilibrium will go backward due to suppression of dissociation of \({\mathrm{PCl}}_{5}\).

c

helium will deactivate \({\mathrm{PCl}}_{5}\) and reaction will stop.

d

addition of helium will not affect the equilibrium.
