If the system 3H₂(g)+ N₂(g) 2NH₃(g)is at equilibrium and more N₂ is added, a net reaction that consumes some of the added N₂ will occur until a new equilibrium is reached.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Le Chatelier's principle, when a system is at equilibrium and a stress (such as adding more reactant) is applied, the system will shift in a way that counteracts the stress and reestablishes equilibrium. Therefore, in this case, the net reaction consuming some of the added N₂ will occur to reestablish a new equilibrium.
