Question

In the following reaction:

$2 \mathrm { NO } _ { ( \mathrm { g } ) } + \mathrm { Cl } _ { 2 ( \mathrm {~g} ) }$ $2 \mathrm { NOCl } _ { ( \mathrm { g } ) }$

It is observed that equilibrium is not attained and the rate of forward reaction is greater than rate of backward reaction. Which of the following is true for the reaction?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Answer 2

: When $\mathrm { Q } _ { \mathrm { p } } < \mathrm { K } _ { \mathrm { p } }$ the rate of forward reaction is more

than rate of backward reaction.
