MCQ
At equilibrium on increasing pressurre boiling point of $H_2O$
  • Boiling point of water increases
  • B
    Boiling point of water decreases
  • C
    Boiling point of water remains unchanged
  • D
    Nothing can be assumed

Answer

Correct option: A.
Boiling point of water increases
a
The equilibrium reaction is $H _2 O ( l ) \rightleftharpoons H _2 O ( g )$, when pressure is applied, the equilibrium will shift to left as the value of $\Delta n$ is positive. Hence, for boiling to occur more temperature is required. So, it will increase the boiling point.
