A generic gas, x, is placed in a sealed glass jar and decomposes to form gaseous y and solid z. 2x (g) ↽--⇀y (g) + z (s) how are these equilibrium quantities affected by the initial amount of x (g) placed in the container? assume constant temperature.

    Answer: the equilibrium will be displaced to the right leading an increase on the quantities of y (g) and z (s).

    Justification:

    According to the rules of equilibrium, based on Le Chatellier's priciple, any change in a system in equilibrium will be tried to be compensated to restablish the equilibrium

    The higher the amount, and so the concentration, of X (g), the more will the forward reaction proceed leading to an increase on the concentration of the products y (g) and z (s). Look that that will also be accompanied by a decreasing on the pressure, since 2 molecules of the gas X (g) are converted into 1 molecule of the gas y (g).
