The correct Answer is:
To determine when the reaction will proceed from right to left for the reaction: \[ N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) \] we need to analyze the relationship between the reaction quotient \( Q \) and the equilibrium constant \( K_c \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Reaction Quotient \( Q \)**: The reaction quotient \( Q \) is defined for the given reaction as: \[ Q = \frac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2][H_2]^3} \] This expression gives us a measure of the ratio of the concentrations of products to reactants at any point in time. 2. **Understand the Equilibrium Constant \( K_c \)**: The equilibrium constant \( K_c \) is a specific value that represents the ratio of the concentrations of products to reactants when the reaction is at equilibrium. For this reaction, it is also given by: \[ K_c = \frac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2][H_2]^3} \] 3. **Determine the Direction of the Reaction**: - If \( Q < K_c \): The reaction will proceed in the forward direction (to the right) to reach equilibrium. - If \( Q = K_c \): The reaction is at equilibrium, and there will be no net change. - If \( Q > K_c \): The reaction will proceed in the reverse direction (to the left) to reach equilibrium. 4. **Conclusion**: The reaction will proceed from right to left (backward direction) if the reaction quotient \( Q \) is greater than the equilibrium constant \( K_c \): \[ Q > K_c \] ### Final Answer: The reaction will proceed from right to left if \( Q > K_c \). ---
