In gas-phase reactions, altering the volume affects the pressure. When the volume is reduced, the pressure increases, and the system shifts toward the side with fewer gas molecules to minimize the change in pressure.

Question

**Concept: Le Châtelier's Principle in Gas-Phase Reactions**

For a gas-phase reaction, Le Châtelier's Principle indicates that a reduction in volume will always cause a shift toward the side of the reaction with fewer molecules in the gas phase.

- ○ True
- ○ False

**Explanation:**

Le Châtelier's Principle states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change. In gas-phase reactions, altering the volume affects the pressure. When the volume is reduced, the pressure increases, and the system shifts toward the side with fewer gas molecules to minimize the change in pressure.
