Based on Le Chatelier's principle, if the equilibrium of a given reaction is disturbed through changes in temperature, pressure, volume or concentration, then it will shift in a direction so as to undo the effect of the change induced.
The given reaction is:
2SO2(g) + O2(g) ↔ 2SO3(g)
As per Boyle's law,
V α 1/P
as the volume is increased the pressure of the system would decrease. The equilibrium would then shift in a direction of increased pressure. This would be towards the reactants where there are more moles of the gas.
Therefore, the equilibrium would shift to the left towards the reactants.
Answer:Shift to reactants because as volume increases pressure decreases
