detailed solution

Correct option is B

It is the reaction SO2(g)+12O2(g)SO3(g) When the number of moles is reduced from 1.5 to 1, the forward reaction takes place. Additionally, when the number of moles is increased from 1 to 1.5, the opposite reaction takes place.

The equilibrium will change when inert gas is supplied at constant pressure, moving in the direction of an increase in the number of moles of gases. As a result, the SO3 will dissociate more when inert gas is added at constant pressure.
