How will the equilibrium shift when the temperature is decreased?

Explanation / Answer

Calculate the Ke. Ke= [product]/[reactant] Ke = [SO3]^2/[SO2]^2[O2] = (1.58)^2/((0.010)^2*(0.158))=1.58*10^5 What would be the effect on Ke when the temperature is increased? The reaction is exoothermic reaction as heat is given in the system so when temperature is increased, the reaction will move backward direction. So equilibrium will be reestablished again so there won
