Question

Consider the gas-phase reaction, N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) ⇌ 2 NH₃ (g), for which K_p = 43 at 400 K. If the mixture is analyzed and found to contain 0.3 bar of N₂, 0.5 bar of H₂ and 1.5 bar of NH₃, describe the situation:

	A.	Q < K and more reactants will be made to reach equilibrium.
	B.	Q < K and more products will be made to reach equilibrium.
	C.	Q > K and more reactants will be made to reach equilibrium.
	D.	Q > K and more products will be made to reach equilibrium.
	E.	Within 1 decimal place, Q = K and the reaction is at equilibrium

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given values->

Kp = 43

P(N2) = 0.3 bar

P(H2)=0.5 bar

P(NH3) = 1.5 bar
