Consider the following equilibrium: 2NO(g) + Cl (g) 2NOCI (g) AG=-41. kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 1.49 atm of chlorine (C1) and 0.954 atm of nitrosyl chloride (NOCI) at 912. C. Answer the following question about this system: Under these conditions, will the pressure of Cl, tend to rise or fall? Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO? In other words, if you said the pressure of Cl will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO? Similarly, if you said the pressure of Cl will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding NO? If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO needed to reverse it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
