QJEEM20Ch48a1: JEE Main 2020 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM20Ch48a1 Solution: Consider the following reaction: N 2 O 4 (g) ⇌ 2NO 2 (g); H o = …
Consider the following reaction:
N2O4(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g); Ho = +58 kJ
For each of the following cases (a, b), the direction in which the equilibrium shifts is :
(a) Temperature is decreased.
(b) Pressure is increased by adding N2 at constant T.
N2O4(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g); Ho = +58 kJ
For each of the following cases (a, b), the direction in which the equilibrium shifts is :
(a) Temperature is decreased.
(b) Pressure is increased by adding N2 at constant T.
Multiple Choice Options
- A (a) towards reactant, (b) towards product
- B (a) towards reactant, (b) no change
- C (a) towards product, (b) towards reactant
- D (a) towards product, (b) no change
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Given reaction is endothermic.
On decreasing temperature backward reaction will be favoured.
On adding N2, pressure is increased at constant T, and volume would also be constant so no change is observed.
