Question

Consider the following equilibrium:

2NOClg
  
+2NOgCl2g
=       ΔG041.kJ

Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 

9.13atm

 of nitrosyl chloride 

NOCl

 and 

3.32atm

 of nitrogen monoxide 

NO

 at 

934.°C

. Answer the following questions about this system:

Under these conditions, will the pressure of 
NO
 tend to rise or fall?
 
rise
 
 
fall
 
Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding 
Cl2
?
In other words, if you said the pressure of 
NO
 will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding 
Cl2
? Similarly, if you said the pressure of 
NO
 will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding 
Cl2
?
 
yes
 
 
no
 
If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of 
Cl2
 needed to reverse it.
Round your answer to 
2
 significant digits.
