Question

Predict the effect of increase in temperature and pressure on the following system at
equilibrium state (only predict the direction) N2+3H2↔2NH3+Heat

Answer 1

Answer:

According to the  Le Chatelier's principle which states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to re-establish an equilibrium. However if a chemical reaction is at equilibrium and experiences a change in pressure and temperature, the equilibrium shifts in the opposite direction. Therefore an increase in temperature favors an endothermic reaction thereby shifting the equilibrium to the left while decreasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right.
