MCQ
If the pressure in a reaction vessel for the following reaction is increased by decreasing the volume, what will happen to the concetrations of $CO$ and $CO_2$ ?
${H_2}O(g){\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} + {\mkern 1mu} CO{\mkern 1mu} (g){\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} \rightleftharpoons \,{H_2}(g)\, + \,C{O_2}(g)\, + \,Heat{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} $
- ABoth the $[CO]$ and $[CO_2]$ will decrease
- BNeither the $[CO]$ nor the $[CO_2]$ will change
- CThe $[CO]$ will decrease and the $[CO_2]$ will increase
- ✓Both the $[CO]$ and $[CO_2]$ will increase
