In the reaction 3O₂ (g)⇔ 2O₃ (g), expanding the reaction vessel will shift the equilibrium to the right.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Le Chatelier's principle, expanding the volume of the reaction vessel will shift the equilibrium towards the side with more moles of gas. In this case, both the reactant and product sides have the same number of gas molecules, so expanding the vessel will not have any effect on the equilibrium position. Therefore, the correct answer is B, false.
