Question

Given the following reaction at equilibrium

N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g). Some inert gas at constant pressure is added to the system. Predict which of the following facts will be affected

• A. More NH3(g) is produced
• B. Less NH3(g) is produced
• C. No affect on the equilibrium
• D. Kp of the reaction is decreased

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Less NH3(g) is produced

Answer 2

On adding inert gas at constant pressure effect on equilibrium will be similar to as if volume of container has been increased.
