rate of reactions - temperature and reversible reactions Flashcards
1
Q
what happens if we increase temperature of a system?
A
equilibrium will shift to decrease ( endothermic side )
2
Q
what happens if we decrease the temperature of a system?
A
equilibrium will shift to increase the temperature (exothermic)
3
Q
2NO2 ⇌ N2O4
forward reaction: exothermic
backward reaction: endothermic
what happens if we increase temp?
what happens if we decrease temp?
A
- more NO2 will form
- more N2O4 will react
