The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the effect of introducing helium gas into a vessel containing nitrogen (N₂), hydrogen (H₂), and ammonia (NH₃) at equilibrium, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Equilibrium Reaction The equilibrium reaction for the synthesis of ammonia is: \[ N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) \] ### Step 2: Identify the Changes Made In this scenario, helium gas (an inert gas) is introduced into the vessel. It is important to note that the volume of the vessel remains constant, and the temperature is also constant. ### Step 3: Apply Le Chatelier's Principle Le Chatelier's Principle states that if a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in concentration, temperature, or pressure, the system will adjust to counteract that change and restore a new equilibrium. ### Step 4: Analyze the Effect of Adding an Inert Gas When an inert gas like helium is added to the system at constant volume: - The total pressure of the system increases due to the addition of the inert gas. - However, the partial pressures of the reactants (N₂ and H₂) and the product (NH₃) do not change because the volume is constant. ### Step 5: Conclusion Since the partial pressures of the gases involved in the equilibrium do not change, the equilibrium position remains unaffected. Therefore, the dissociation of NH₃ remains unchanged. ### Final Answer The dissociation of NH₃ remains unchanged.
