Question

Ammonia is synthesized via the following chemical reaction:
N2(g)+3H2(g)↔2NH3(g)  where  K=6.01×10−2

 

Given the following initial conditions, determine if the given concentrations represent an equilibrium. If not, predict the direction in which the reaction will proceed to reach equilibrium.

Initial Conditions:

 [NH3(g)]=1.00×10−3 mol/L[N2(g)]=1.00×10−5 mol/L[H2(g)]=2.00 ×10−3 mol/L
