Given the equilibrium system N H 4 C l s ⇌ N H 4 + a q + C l - a q ( ∆ H = + 3.5 kcal/mol). What change will shift the equilibrium to the right?
Options
- ADecreasing the temperature
- BIncreasing the temperature
- CDissolving N a C l crystals in the equilibrium mixture
- DDissolving N H 4 N O 3 crystals in the equilibrium mixture
Correct answer
B. Increasing the temperature
Step-by-step solution
N H 4 C l s ⇌ N H 4 + a q + C l - a q ; ∆ H = + 3.5 kcal/mol This is the endothermic reaction hence, increasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to the right.
