The standard state gibbs free energy change for the given isomerization reaction cis-2-pentene ⇌ trans –2 -pentene is at . If more trans-2-pentene is added to the reaction vessel, then.

A

More cis –2–pentene is formed

B

Equilibrium is shifted in the forward direction

C

Equilibrium remains unaffected

D

Additional trans–2–pentene is formed

Answer

More cis –2–pentene is formed

Explanation

Solution

Equilibrium shifts backward by Le-chatelier’s principle.
