← ScienceWhich equilibrium shift arises when rapidly injecting nitrogen into a reaction vessel?
A)Consumption of inert nitrogen increases
B)Volume increase favors gas production✓
C)Catalyst poisoning reduces reaction rate
D)Activated complex concentration decreases
💡 Explanation
Introducing nitrogen rapidly increases total pressure; therefore, to restore equilibrium, **Le Chatelier's principle** dictates a shift to reduce pressure because the side with fewer gas molecules becomes favored, rather than nitrogen reacting.
