Chapter 15, Problem 30PS
The decomposition of NH4HS
NH4HS(s) ⇄ NH3(g) + H2S(g)
is an endothermic process. Using Le Chatelier’s principle, explain how increasing the temperature would affect the equilibrium. If more NH4HS is added to a flask in which this equilibrium exists, how is the equilibrium affected? What if some additional NH3 is placed in the flask? What will happen to the pressure of NH3 if some H2S is removed from the flask?
