Question:

For the reaction, H$_2$(g) + I$_2$(g) ⇌ 2 HI(g), the position of equilibrium can be shifted to the right by

Show Hint

Adding reactants shifts the equilibrium to the right; adding products shifts it to the left.

  • addition of HI
  • addition of both I$_2$ and HI
  • increasing temperature
  • addition of I$_2$

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation


According to Le Chatelier's Principle, the equilibrium shifts to oppose the change.
Adding I$_2$, a reactant, increases its concentration. To reduce this, the equilibrium shifts rightward, forming more HI.
Hence, the forward reaction is favored.
