Choose the correct statement about the equilibrium: N 2 (g)+ 3 H 2 (g)⇌ 2 NH 3 (g),K p = 1 × 10 -4

Increasing pressure shifts the equilibrium towards the side with fewer moles of gas, which is the product side (ammonia), thus increasing its yield.

Question 21

Multiple Choice

Choose the correct statement about the equilibrium:
N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) ⇌ 2 NH₃(g) ,K_p = 1 × 10^-4

A) The rate constant for the forward reaction is greater than that of the reverse reaction.
B) Since the reaction has a high activation energy,a catalyst is not needed.
C) The equilibrium constant is given by K_p = [N₂][H₂]³/[NH₃]².
D) Conducting the reaction under high pressures will increase the yield of ammonia.
E) The K_p is independent of temperature.
