Question
Consider the following equilibrium:
2NH, (g) – N, (g) + 3H, (g)
AG° = 34. kJ
Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 5.02 atm of ammonia (NH,) and 9.40 atm of nitrogen (N,) at 159. °C. Answer the following questions about this
system:
rise
Under these conditions, will the pressure of N, tend to rise or fall?
fall
Is it possible to reverse this tendency
adding H2?
In other words, if you said the pressure of N, will tend to rise, can that be
yes
changed to a tendency to fall by adding H,? Similarly, if you said the
no
pressure of
N, will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise
by adding H2?
If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate
the minimum pressure of H, needed to reverse it.
atm
Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
