Q16Multiple choice
On increasing the pressure, in which direction will the gas phase reaction proceed to re-establish equilibrium, is predicted by applying the Le Chatelier’s principle. Consider the reaction. N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) 2NH3 (g) Which of the following is correct, if the total pressure at which the equilibrium is established, is increased without changing the temperature?
- (i)K will remain same
- (ii)K will decrease
- (iii)K will increase
- (iv)K will increase initially and decrease when pressure is very high
Show answer
(i) K will remain same
