Anhydrous CaCl is often used as desiccant In the presence of excess CaCl the amount of water taken up is governed by Kp 6 4 x 108s for the following reaction at room temperature CaCl s 6H O g CaCl 6H O s Which of the following statements is correct about above reaction A At equilibrium addition of CaCl will shift reaction in forward direction B Vapour pressure of water at equilibrium in a closed vessel that contains CaCl s is 5 x 10 15 atm approximately C Vapour pressure of water at equilibrium in a closed vessel becomes half if volume of container is reduced to half at same temperature D If temperature is increased then vapour pressure of water at equilibrium in closed vessel decreases
