Answer»

SOLUTION :`{:("Equilibrium reaction :",N_(2(G))+ , 3H_(2(g)) HARR , 2NH_(3(g))),("At t time composition :",3.0,2.0,0.5):}`
At t time the reaction quotient Q of composition of reaction MIXTURE is,

Answer»

SOLUTION :The given reaction is `: N_(2) (g) + 3 H_(2) (g) hArr 2 NH_(3) (g)`
According to available data
`N_(2) = [3.0] , H_(2) = [2,0] , NH_(3) = [0.50]`
`Q_(C) = ([NH_(3) (g)]^(2))/([N_(2) (g)] [H_(2) (g)]^(3)) = ([0.50]^(2))/([3.0][2.0]) = (0.25)/(24) = 0.0104`

Answer»

Solution :`Q_(C)= ([NH_(3)]^(2))/([N_(2)][H_(2)]^(3) )=(0*5)^(2)/((3*0)(2*0)^(3))=0*0104`
As ` Q_(c)!=K_(c) `, REACTION is not in equilibrium
