    Direction for: In each of the following questions a statement of Assertion is given followed by a corresponding statement of Reason just below it. Of the statements mark the correct answer as

    Assertion: For the reaction, \[2NO(g)+{{O}_{2}}(g)\rightleftharpoons 2N{{O}_{2}}(g),\] increase in pressure favours the formation of \[N{{O}_{2}}\] Reason: The reaction is exothermic.

    A) If both Assertion: and Reason: are true and the Reason: is the correct explanation of the Assertion:

    B) If both Assertion: and Reason: are true but the Reason: is not the correct explanation of the Assertion:

    C) If Assertion: is true but Reason: is false

    D) If both Assertion: and Reason: are false

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[123\text{ }g/cc\] In this reaction, Number of moles of gaseous reactants, \[A(g)+B(g)\rightleftharpoons C(g)+D(g)\] Number of moles of gaseous products, \[4.5\] Since, \[6\] is less than \[9\] according to Le. ChateUer principle, increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium in forward direction, ie, more \[\frac{1}{6}\] is formed. The reaction given above is exothermic.
