- For the reversible exothermic reaction, N₂ + 3H₂ ⇋ 2NH₃, increase of pressure would
A.
Shift the equilibrium towards right |
B.
Give higher yield of NH₃ |
C.
Both B and C |
D.
Neither A nor B |
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
By Le Chatelier's principle the increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium towards less number of moles side so, here the equilibrium shifts towards the right side thereby, increasing the concentration of NH3.
