The reaction $C_2H_{6(g)} \rightleftharpoons C_2H_{4(g)} + H_{2(g)}$ is at equilibrium in a closed vessel at $1000 \ K$. The enthalpy change $(\Delta H)$ for the reaction is $137.0 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. Which one of the following actions would shift the equilibrium to the right?

  • A
    Decreasing the volume of the closed reaction vessel
  • B
    Decreasing the temperature at which the reaction is performed
  • C
    Adding an inert gas to the closed reaction vessel
  • D
    Increasing the volume of the closed reaction vessel
