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.
