    The equilibrium will be shifted in the opposite direction if: \[PC{{l}_{3}}(g)+C{{l}_{2}}(g)PC{{l}_{5}}(g)\]

    A) \[PC{{l}_{3}}\]is added

    B)  helium gas is added

    C)  catalyst is added

    D)  pressure is reduced

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\underset{1\,mole}{\mathop{PC{{l}_{3}}(g)}}\,+\underset{1\,mole}{\mathop{C{{l}_{2}}(g)}}\,\underset{1\,mole}{\mathop{PC{{l}_{5}}(g)}}\,\] In the backward reaction number of moles increases, hence, decreasing pressure will favour the backward reaction.
