Solution

The correct option is B Adding F2
The equilibrium reaction is Cl2(g)+3F2(g)2ClF3(g)ΔH=329
When fluorine is added, more and more fluorine will react with chlorine to form more ClF3 and the equilibrium will shift towards right. This will increase the quantity of ClF3 in the equilibrium mixture.
