The value of ΔH for the reaction X 2 (g) + 4Y 2 (g) ⇌ 2XY 4 (g) is less than zero. Formation of XY 4 (g) will be favoured at
Options
- Ahigh temperature and high pressure
- Blow pressure and low temperature
- Chigh temperature and low pressure
- Dhigh pressure and low temperature
Correct answer
D. high pressure and low temperature
Step-by-step solution
X 2 (g) + 4Y 2 (g) ⇌ 2XY 4 (g) Δn g = –ve and ΔH = –ve (exothermic) According to Le-Chatelier's principle: The reaction is favoured in forward direction at low temperature and high pressure.
