Consider the following reaction equation
N\(_{2}\)(g) + 3H\(_{2(g)}\) ⇌ 2NH3(g) ∆H = -92kJ
Increasing the temperature of the reaction would
- shift the equilibrium to the right
- increase the yield of ammonia
- decrease the amount of hydrogen
-
decrease the yield of ammonia
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
In this case, an increase in in temperature will cause the equilibrium position to shift to the left thereby decreasing the yield of ammonia.
