Question

i didn't get the undrestand the answer to thisquestion. How to use both pressure and temperature as combinationto increase the yield, so yes the temperature must decrease in anexothermic reaction, but why an increase on pressure; i wasthinking in a decrease of pressure shift the equlibrium positiontoword the product where there is few moles and thus increaseproduction. so why your answer is to increase the pressure ( part "a"of the problem76, page 778 chemistry; silberberg 5th edition) thanks i didn't get the undrestand the answer to thisquestion.

Explanation / Answer

A decrease of pressure leads to a net change occurs in thedirection that produces more moles of gas, but notless moles of gas. Thus, increasing pressure is the correct answer.
