What is the effect of pressure on the following system?

$PCl subscript 5 space rightwards harpoon over leftwards harpoon space space space PCl subscript 3 space plus space Cl subscript 2$

Solution

PCl subscript 5 space rightwards harpoon over leftwards harpoon space space PCl subscript 3 space plus space Cl subscript 2 1 space mol space space rightwards harpoon over leftwards harpoon space space 1 space mol space space space 1 space mol

The increase of pressure favours the backward reaction, where there is a decrease in volume.
