Reversible reactions and equilibrium — practice question

The equation represents a reaction in the Contact process. $2\text{SO}_2(g) + \text{O}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{SO}_3(g) \quad \Delta H = -196\,\text{kJ mol}^{-1}$ Which change would shift the equilibrium position to the left?

  • Aadding more $\text{O}_2$
  • Bincreasing the pressure
  • Cincreasing the temperature
  • Dremoving $\text{SO}_3$ from the reacting mixture
