**Chemical Reaction Analysis:** Consider the chemical reaction: \[ \text{N}_2 + 3\text{H}_2 \rightarrow 2\text{NH}_3 \] If the concentration of the reactant \(\text{H}_2\) was increased from \(1.0 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{M}\) to \(2.5 \times 10^{-1} \, \text{M}\), calculate the reaction quotient (Q) and determine which way the chemical system would shift by comparing the value of Q to K. **Use this information to answer Questions 3, 4, and 5:** The equilibrium constant (K) of the reaction below is \(K = 6.0 \times 10^{-2}\), with initial concentrations as follows: - \([\text{H}_2] = 1.0 \times 10^{-2} \, \text{M}\) - \([\text{N}_2] = 4.0 \, \text{M}\) - \([\text{NH}_3] = 1.0 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{M}\) \[ \text{N}_2(\text{g}) + 3\text{H}_2(\text{g}) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NH}_3(\text{g}) \]

Expert Solution
Step 1: Relation between reaction quotient Q and equilibrium constant K

Answer:

  1. When straight Q equals straight K, system will be at equilibrium
  2. When Q<K, system will not be at equilibrium and reaction will move in forward direction to establish the equilibrium.
  3. When Q>K, system will not be at equilibrium and reaction will move in reverse direction to establish the equilibrium.
