**Equilibrium Reaction Analysis****Reaction at Equilibrium:**\[ \text{Kr}_{(g)} + 2 \text{F}_2_{(g)} \rightleftharpoons \text{KrF}_4_{(g)} \]**Scenario:**The reaction is currently at equilibrium. If the volume of the reaction chamber is suddenly halved, what effect would this have on the system?**Options:**- The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of reactants.- Cannot be determined – The equilibrium concentrations of all species must be provided.- The reaction will shift to the right in the direction of products.- The equilibrium constant will increase.- The equilibrium constant will decrease.**Discussion:**Halving the volume of the reaction chamber will increase the pressure. According to Le Chatelier's Principle, the system will shift towards the side with fewer moles of gas to reduce the pressure. In this reaction, the product side (\(\text{KrF}_4\)) has fewer moles of gas compared to the reactant side (\(\text{Kr} + 2 \text{F}_2\)). Therefore, the reaction will shift to the right towards the products to relieve the pressure.**Conclusion:**- The correct option is: **The reaction will shift to the right in the direction of products.**Note: The equilibrium constant (\(K_c\)) remains unchanged with changes in volume or pressure; it is only affected by temperature changes.
