(A) The equilibrium constant will decrease and the reaction will shift to the left. (B) The equilibrium constant will be unchanged, but the reaction will shift to the left. (C) The equilibrium constant will be unchanged, but the reaction will shift to the right. (D) The equilibrium constant will increase and the reaction will shift to the right. (E) The equilibrium concentrations will not be affected.

Keq from Equilibrium Composition, Variously Expressed. At some temperature, an equilibrium mixture, in a 1.00-L container, involving the chemical system PCI5(g) = PCI3(g) + Cl2(g) is found to contain 5.74x1020 molecules of PCI5, 0.00921 mol of PCI3, and 0.228 g of Cl2. Calculate the equilibrium constant (Keg expressed in terms of the molar concentrations) at this temperature. (No units required.)

Given the following equation: NH4 (aq) + NO2 (aq) → N2(g) + 2H2O (1) AH = -122.4 kJ/mol How would decreasing the pressure effect the equilibrium? It would cause the equilibrium to shift to the right, favoring the products or the forward reaction. It would cause the equilibrium to shift to the left, favoring the reactants or the reverse reaction. It would not effect the equilibrium.
