Question

For the chemical reaction,$3 X ( g) + Y ( g) \rightleftharpoons \, X_3 \, Y$ ( g) the amount of $X_3 Y$ at equilibrium is affected by

• A. temperature and pressure
• B. temperature only
• C. pressure only
• D. temperature, pressure and catalyst

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

temperature and pressure

Answer 2

Both temperature and pressure will change the equilibrium amount of $X_3 \, Y$ (g). Temperature changes the value of equilibrium constant.
