For the reaction 2 NH3(g) N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g), the value of the equilibrium constant is 2.00 at
400°C. A 20.0 L vessel contains 0.500 mol NH3.
The concentrations of all species at equilibrium are [N2] = 0.12 M, [H2] = 0.036 M and [NH3] =
0.001 M.
At the above equilibrium concentrations, how does the position of equilibrium respond if the
following change/stress is made (use LeChatelier's Principle to answer either shift left to reactants,
shift right to products, or no change in position of equilibrium and then calculate Qc and compare it
to K.
Stress/Change: Change the concentration of H₂ to 0.0300 M.

Expert Solution
Step 1

LeChatelier's principle: When factors like concentration, pressure, temperature, inert gases that affect equilibrium are changed, the equilibrium will shift in that direction where the effectsare minimized.
