The effect of addition of helium gas to the following reaction in equilibrium state, is: PCl_5( g ) ⇌ PCl_3( g )+ Cl_2( g )
The effect of addition of helium gas to the following reaction in equilibrium state, is :
$$\mathrm{PCl}_5(\mathrm{~g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{PCl}_3(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{Cl}_2(\mathrm{~g})
$$
Official answer
From NTA’s final answer key for this paper.
(2)
the equilibrium will shift in the forward direction and more of $\displaystyle \mathrm{Cl}_2$ and $\displaystyle \mathrm{PCl}_3$ gases will be produced.
(3)
addition of helium will not affect the equilibrium.
NTA’s answer key accepts either.
