← ScienceWhich equilibrium shift occurs when inert gas injection raises pressure?
A)No shift in equilibrium position✓
B)Shift favors the lower energy side
C)Shift favors the higher energy side
D)Shift toward side with more moles
💡 Explanation
Introducing inert gas increases total pressure, but the partial pressures of reactants/products remain constant, thus the Reaction Quotient (Q) does not change relative to the Equilibrium Constant (K). Therefore, equilibrium remains unchanged, rather than shifting toward a specific side, because the concentrations were not altered.
