Here we are required to predict the equilibrium direction on changing the reaction condition.It is an example of application of La chatelier principle. According to La chatelier principle if a System already in equilibrium is disturbed by an external force then system again tries to reestablish the equilibrium by moving in such direction to oppose the effect of the external force. Given equilibrium reaction CO(g) +Cl2(g) COCl2(g) Addition of COCl2 Due to addition of COCl2 , the concentration of the product increases So due to increase concentration on right Hand side according to La chatelier principle the equilibrium will shift in direction to oppose the effect of the concentration so the equilibrium will shift toward left.ii) Cl2 added Due to addition of Cl2 , the concentration of the reactant increases So due to increase concentration on left hand side according to La chatelier principle the equilibrium will shift in direction to oppose the effect of the concentration so the equilibrium will shift toward right. iii) removal of COCl2 Due to removal of COCl2 , the concentration of the product decreases So due to drcrease concentration on right Hand side according to La chatelier principle the equilibrium will shift in direction to oppose the effect of the concentration so the equilibrium will shift toward right. iv) the volume of container is decreased: As we know the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. Thus due to decrease in volume , the pressure of the container increase, the equilibrium will shift in direction where the number mole of gaseous species is less. For the given equilibrium reaction Number of mole of gaseous species =1 Number of mole of gaseous species =2 As the number of moles of gaseous species on right is less so the equilibrium will shift toward right.
