Class 11 Chemistry Equilibrium: NCERT Solutions for Question 21
Equilibrium constant, Kc for the reaction
N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ↔ 2NH3 (g) at 500 K is 0.061
At a particular time, the analysis shows that composition of the reaction mixture is 3.0 mol L–1 N2, 2.0 mol L–1 H2 and 0.5 mol L–1 NH3.
Is the reaction at equilibrium?
If not in which direction does the reaction tend to proceed to reach equilibrium?
The given reaction is:
N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ↔ 2NH3 (g)
at a particular time: 3.0molL-1 2.0 molL-1 0.5molL-1
Now, we know that,
Qc = [NH3]2 / [N2][H2]3
= (0.5)2 / (3.0)(2.0)3
= 0.0104
It is given that Kc = 0.061
Since,Qc ≠ Kc, the reaction mixture is not at equilibrium.
Again, Qc < Kc, the reaction will proceed in the forward direction to reach equilibrium.
