The correct Answer is:
To analyze how the yield of ammonia (NH₃) in the reaction \(N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3\) is affected by various factors, we can apply Le Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reaction and Its Characteristics**: - The reaction is \(N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3\). - The enthalpy change (\(\Delta H\)) is \(-22.08\) kcal, indicating that the reaction is exothermic (releases heat). 2. **Effect of Temperature**: - For exothermic reactions, increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the left (toward the reactants) to absorb the excess heat. - Conversely, decreasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right (toward the products), increasing the yield of ammonia. 3. **Effect of Pressure**: - The reaction involves 1 mole of \(N_2\) and 3 moles of \(H_2\) on the reactants' side, totaling 4 moles of gas. On the products' side, there are 2 moles of \(NH_3\). - According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the pressure will shift the equilibrium toward the side with fewer moles of gas, which is the product side (2 moles of \(NH_3\)). - Therefore, increasing pressure favors the formation of ammonia. 4. **Effect of Concentration**: - Increasing the concentration of \(N_2\) will shift the equilibrium to the right (toward the products) to consume the added reactant, thus increasing the yield of ammonia. - Similarly, increasing the concentration of \(H_2\) would also shift the equilibrium to the right. 5. **Conclusion**: - The yield of ammonia is affected by changes in temperature, pressure, and the concentration of \(N_2\) (and \(H_2\)). - Therefore, the correct answer is that the yield of \(NH_3\) is affected by changes in pressure, temperature, and concentration of \(N_2\). ### Final Answer: The yield of \(NH_3\) in the reaction \(N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3\) is affected by changes in pressure, temperature, and concentration of \(N_2\).
