Equilibrium Question 628

Question: In the reaction $ N_2+3H_2\to 2NH_3 $ , the product increases on [Bihar MEE 1996]

Options:

A) Increasing temperature

B) Increasing pressure

C) Increasing temperature and pressure both

D) Decreasing temperature and pressure both

E) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

According to Le-chatlier’s principle, the increase in temperature favors the equilibrium shift towards less no. of moles. Hence in the given reaction the product formation increases on increasing pressure.
