Consider the following reaction equation
N\(_{2}\)(g) + 3H\(_{2(g)}\) ⇌ 2NH3(g) ∆H = -92kJ
Increasing the temperature of the reaction would
shift the equilibrium to the right
increase the yield of ammonia
decrease the amount of hydrogen
decrease the yield of ammonia
Paliwanag
In this case, an increase in in temperature will cause the equilibrium position to shift to the left thereby decreasing the yield of ammonia.
