Vedclass · Answer

(B) According to Le Chatelier's principle,an increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium towards the side with a smaller volume (or higher density).In the case of $H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_2O(s)$,the density of ice $(H_2O(s))$ is lower than that of liquid water $(H_2O(l))$,meaning ice occupies a larger volume. However,for most substances,the solid phase is denser than the liquid phase.For the equilibrium $H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_2O(s)$,increasing the pressure favors the formation of the denser phase. Since liquid water is denser than ice,increasing pressure shifts the equilibrium towards the liquid side.For $Fe(l) \rightleftharpoons Fe(s)$,the solid phase is denser than the liquid phase. Therefore,an increase in pressure will shift the equilibrium to the right (towards the solid phase).

Which of the following equilibria will shift to the right side by an increase in pressure?
