Q
For gaseous reactions at equilibrium…
A
if there is:
An increase in pressure, the equilibrium’s position is shifted towards the side with the smaller number of molecules
A decrease in pressure the equilibrium’s position is shifted towards the side with the larger number of molecules
—-Both shown by the symbol equation for that reaction—-
