In the following equilibrium amount of CO(g) can be decreased by 2CO(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2CO2(g) — AITS & Test Series Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

(A) Thus, on decreasing volume, pressure is increased. Thus, formation of product is increased (and thus deceasing CO) (B) Addition of argon (inert gas) increases pressure thus as in (A). (C) O2 (reactant) will react CO hence amount of CO decreases.
