What effect will be the effect on equilibrium if total pressure is increased by reducing volume? Temperature is fixed. SOCl2(g)SO2(g)+Cl2(g) A. Concentration of SO2Cl2 increases B. Concentration of SO2 increases C. Concentration of Cl2 increases D. Concentration of all gases increases According to my knowledge reaction should shift backwards as given volume is reduced so it will shift towards less no. Of gaseous moles and and should be A. But answer given in the book is option D. Old clarify my doubt.

Question update.
Reaction is
SO2Cl2 (g) = SO2 (g) + Cl2 (g) 
It is a reversible reaction.
