Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: Cl2(g) + 3 F2(g) ⇌ 2 ClF3(g)If the concentration of F2(g) is suddenly doubled (at constant pressure and volume) which of the following will be true when the system is again at equilibrium? Question 2 options: The concentrations of both F2(g) and ClF3(g) will be higher; Cl2(g) will be lower The concentration of ClF3(g) will be lower; Cl2(g) and F2(g) will both be higher The concentrations of all three species will be unaffected The concentrations of both F2(g) and Cl2(g) will be lower; ClF3(g) will be higher

Question

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: Cl₂(g) + 3 F₂(g) ⇌ 2 ClF₃(g)

If the concentration of F₂(g) is suddenly doubled (at constant pressure and volume) which of the following will be true when the system is again at equilibrium?

Question 2 options:

	The concentrations of both F₂(g) and ClF₃(g) will be higher; Cl₂(g) will be lower
	The concentration of ClF₃(g) will be lower; Cl₂(g) and F₂(g) will both be higher
	The concentrations of all three species will be unaffected
	The concentrations of both F₂(g) and Cl₂(g) will be lower; ClF₃(g) will be higher
