rate of reactions - pressure and rebersible reactions Flashcards
1
Q
what does pressure affect?
A
gas particles
2
Q
what is 1 thing the pressure of gas depends on?
A
number of molecules
3
Q
what happens if we increase pressure on a reversible reaction at equilibrium?
A
position if equilibrium will shift to the side with a smaller number of molecules
4
Q
what happens if we decrease pressure on a reversible reaction at equilibrium?
A
the position of equilibrium will shift to the side with a larger number of molecules
5
Q
what happens if both sides have an equal number of molecules?
A
then pressure has no effect on equilibrium
6
Q
N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3
what happens if we increase pressure?
decrease pressure?
A
- shift towards the right
- shifts towards the left
