Vant Hoff's Equation and Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium Constant
Ice and water...
Question
Ice and water are placed in a closed container at a pressure of 1 atm and 273.15K temperature. If the pressure of the system is increased by 2 atm keeping temperature constant, the correct observation would be:

Solution
The correct option is C the solid phase (ice) disappears completely When the pressure will increase,
H2O(s)⟶H2O(l),
As the volume of H2O(s) is more than the volume of H2O(l) so to decrease the volume of the system with an increase in pressure ice will melt into liquid water.
