Question

For the following reactions, predict whether the mole fraction of the reactants or products increases or remains the same when the volume of the reaction vessel is increased.

a. 2 CH (g) C,H2 (g) + 3 H2(g)
Omole fraction of reactants increases
Omole fraction of products increases
Omole fraction remains the same
b. N2 (g) +2 02(g) 2 NO,(g)
Omole fraction of reactants increases
mole fraction of products increases
Omole fraction remains the same
c. 2HI(g) = H2(g) +I (g)
mole fraction of reactants increases
Omole fraction of products increases
Omole fraction remains the same
