If Ne(g) is introduced into the vessel, keeping the volume constant, such that the total pressure
of the vessel increases, the rate of the forward reaction will

Expert Solution

Step 1

A system in its equilibrium state will remain in that state indefinitely as long as it is undisturbed. If the equilibrium is destroyed by subjecting the system to a change of pressure, temperature, or the number of moles of a substance, then a net reaction will tend to take place that moves the system to a new equilibrium state. Le Chatelier's principle says that this net reaction will occur in a direction that partially offsets the change.
