Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. What effect will removing some SO₂ have on the system? SO2(g) + NO2(g) = SO3(g) + NO(g) O The pressure of SO3 will increase The equilibrium constant will decrease. No change will occur since SO2 is not included in the equilibrium expression. The pressure of NO₂ will increase. The reaction will shift to decrease the pressure.
