H_2(g) + Cl_2(g) rarr 2HCl(g) The give reaction occurs at constant pressure...which is the only viable observation?
"1. Pressure will increase in reaction."
"2. Mass will increase in reaction."
"3. Pressure will decrease in reaction."
"4. Mass is conserved in the reaction."

Explanation:
YOu have been given the chemical equation:
There are 2 equiv (moles if you like) of gaseous product, and 2 equiv gaseous reactant. Clearly, mass is conserved in a chemical reaction, as are pressure and volume in this scenario, because temperature was specified to be constant.
