MCQ
The increase of pressure on ice $\rightleftharpoons$ water system at constant temperature will lead to
  • A
    a decrease in the entropy of the system
  • B
    an increase in the Gibb's energy of the system
  • C
    no effect on the equilibrium
  • a shift of the equilibrium in the forward direction

Answer

Correct option: D.
a shift of the equilibrium in the forward direction
d
Volume of ice is greater than that of water. The direction in which the reaction will proceed can be predicted by applying LeChatelier's principle
${\text{Pressure }} \propto {\text{ }}\frac{1}{{{\text{Vo1ume}}}}$
So equilibrium, will shift forward.
