CuO(s) + H\(_2\)(g) ↔ Cu(s) + H\(_2\)O(g)
What is the effect of increasing the pressure on the equilibrium reaction above?
A
The equilibrium is shifted to the left
B
The equilibrium is shifted to the right
C
There is no effect
D
More H2(g) is produced
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Chemical Principles & Mechanism
When amount / volume of gaseous reactants equal amount / volume of gaseous products, the change in pressure has no effect on the equilibrium position.
