When an inert gas is introduced- the reaction will shift in a direction in which the number of moles increases- This happens in the forward reaction- Hence- the equilibrium will shift to right- Also when the volume of the container is increased- the pressure will reduce- To nullify the effect of reduced pressure- the equilibrium will shift to right-

For the reaction PCl5(g)⇌PCl3(g)+Cl2(g), the forward reaction at constant temperatureis favoured by:Introducing an inert gas at constant volume.Introducing chlorine gas at constant volume.Introducing an inert gas at constant pressure.Increasing the volume of the container.
