In the following Haber synthesis of NH3, the equilibrium constant for NH3 formation, on increase in temperature, is N2(g)+3H2(g) leftharpoons 2NH3 (g) + heat energy

Question

In the following Haber synthesis of NH3, the equilibrium constant for NH3 formation, on increase in temperature, is N2(g)+3H2(g) leftharpoons 2NH3 (g) + heat energy (A) decreased (B) increased (C) first decreased and then increased (D) not altered

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

N 2(g)+3 H 2(g) leftharpoons 2 NH 3(g)+ heat energy. The given reaction is exothermic and equilibrium constant for an exothermic reaction decreases with rise in temperature.

Q. In the following Haber synthesis of $N H_{3}$ , the equilibrium constant for $N H_{3}$ formation, on increase in temperature, is
$N_{2} (g) + 3 H_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 N H_{3} (g) +$ heat energy

decreased

increased

first decreased and then increased

not altered

$N_{2} (g) + 3 H_{2} (g) ⇌ 2 N H_{3} (g) +$ heat

energy. The given reaction is exothermic and equilibrium constant for an exothermic reaction decreases with rise in temperature.
