The system below was at equilibrium in a
2.0 L container . What change will occur
for the system when the container is
shrunk to 1.0 L?
2NO(g)+O_(2)(g)leftharpoons 2NO_(2)(g)+113.06kJ
Hint: How many moles of gas are on each side?
The reaction shifts to the left (reactants) to produce more moles of gas.
The reaction shifts to the right (products) to produce fewer moles of
gas.
There is no change because there are the same number of moles of gas
on both sides.
