100%
Consider the following equilibrium:
2NH3g
+N2g3H2g
=       ΔG034.kJ
Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with
8.34atm
of ammonia
NH3
and
7.19atm
of nitrogen
N2
at
76.°C
. Answer the following questions about this system:
Under these conditions, will the pressure of
NH3
tend to rise or fall?
 
rise
 
 
fall
 
Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding
H2
?
In other words, if you said the pressure of
NH3
will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding
H2
? Similarly, if you said the pressure of
NH3
will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding
H2
?
 
yes
 
 
no
 
If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of
H2
needed to reverse it.
Round your answer to
2
significant digits.
