NEET2024ChemistryChemical EquilibriumActual
For the reaction in equilibrium N ₂( ~g )+3 H ₂( ~g ) 2 NH ₃( ~g ), H =- Q Reaction is favoured in forward direction by:
Options
- Ause of catalyst
- Bdecreasing concentration of N ₂
- Clow pressure, high temperature and high concentration of ammonia
- Dhigh pressure, low temperature and higher concentration of H ₂
Correct answer
D. high pressure, low temperature and higher concentration of H ₂
Step-by-step solution
N ₂( ~g )+3 H ₂( ~g ) 2 NH ₃( ~g ), H =- Q According to Le Chatelier's principle. - Exothermic reactions are favoured at low temperature. - Increase in pressure shifts the reaction in direction having lesser number of moles. Hence, the given reaction shifts forward on increasing pressure. - Increasing the concentration of reactants shifts the reaction in forward direction. So high concentration of H ₂ shifts reaction in forward direction.
