For the reaction,$2SO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \to 2SO_{3(g)}$
$\Delta H = -57.2 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ and $K_C = 1.7 \times 10^{16}$
Which of the following statement is $INCORRECT$?

  • A
    The equilibrium constant is large suggestive of reaction going to completion and so no catalyst is required.
  • B
    The equilibrium will shift in forward direction as the pressure increases.
  • C
    The equilibrium constant decreases as the temperature increases.
  • D
    The addition of inert gas at constant volume will not affect the equilibrium constant.

In reaction $A + 2B \rightleftharpoons 2C + D$,the initial concentration of $B$ was $1.5$ times that of $[A]$,but at equilibrium,the concentrations of $A$ and $B$ became equal. The equilibrium constant for the reaction is:

$CH_3COCH_{3(g)} \rightleftharpoons C_2H_{6(g)} + CO_{(g)}$. The initial pressure of $CH_3COCH_3$ is $100 \ mm$. When equilibrium is set up,the mole fraction of $CO_{(g)}$ is $\frac{1}{4}$. Hence,the partial pressure of $CO$ is:

$PCl_{5}$ dissociates as $PCl_{5(g)} \rightleftharpoons PCl_{3(g)} + Cl_{2(g)}$. $5 \, \text{moles}$ of $PCl_{5}$ are placed in a $200 \, L$ vessel which contains $2 \, \text{moles}$ of $N_{2}$ and is maintained at $600 \, K$. The equilibrium pressure is $2.46 \, atm$. The equilibrium constant $K_{p}$ for the dissociation of $PCl_{5}$ is $...... \times 10^{-3}$.
