Solution
The correct option is B Concentrations of SO2Cl2,SO2 and Cl2 do not change The equilibrium, SO2Cl2(g)⇌SO2(g)+Cl2(g) is attained at 25oC in a closed container and an inert gas, helium, is introduced.
Concentrations of SO2Cl2,SO2 and Cl2 do not change.
This is because the individual partial pressure of the reactants remains the same.
