Solution

The correct options are
B 2CuI+I2+4K=2Cu2++4KI
C SnCl4+Hg2Cl=SnCl2+2HgCl2
D NH3+H2O+NaCl=NH4Cl+NaOH
According to Le Chatelier's Principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium the system will adjust to relieve the stress.
In the given reactions
Fe2O3+6HCl2FeCl3+3H2O
The reaction is acid base neutralization reaction will proceed in forward direction.
NH3+H2O+NaClNH4Cl+NaOH
The reaction will proceed in backward direction as the product side has strong base reacting with salt.
SnCl4+Hg2Cl2SnCl2+2HgCl2
The reaction will proceed in backward direction as the Sn+4 and Hg+2 are more stable oxidation states than Hg+ and Sn2+
2CuI+I2+4K+2Cu2++4KI
The reaction will proceed in backward direction.
