Ammonia is synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen in the reaction: N2(g) + 3H2(g) <--> 2NH3(g). At 500oC, the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 0.080. Given that you have reacted 2.5 moles of Nitrogen gas with 1.75 moles of hydrogen gas, and you produced 1 mole of ammonia gas in a 2.5L flask, is the reaction at equilibrium? If not, in what direction will it tend?
