#inert gas effect

1 public question tagged with this topic.

What is the effect of adding an inert gas at constant volume to the equilibrium 2A(g) B(g) + C(g) ?

Adding an inert gas at constant volume does not change the partial pressures or concentrations of the reactants and products, so the equilibrium position remains unaffected.
