Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.  This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

[tex]A\rightleftharpoons B+\text{ heat}[/tex]

In exothermic reaction , heat is released during a chemical reaction. This means that temperature is decreased on the reactant side.

  • Increasing temperature increase the heat on the product side, the equilibrium will shift in left direction.
  • Decreasing temperature decreases the heat on the product side, the equilibrium will shift in right direction.

[tex]A+\text{ heat}\rightleftharpoons B[/tex]

In endothermic reaction , heat is absorbed during a chemical reaction. This means that temperature is increased on the reactant side.

  • Increasing temperature increase the heat on the reactant side, the equilibrium will shift in right direction.
  • Decreasing temperature decreases the heat on the reactant side, the equilibrium will shift in left direction.

Increase the volume

If the volume of the container is decreased , the pressure will increase according to Boyle's Law. Now, according to the Le-Chatlier's principle, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease in pressure is taking place. So the equilibrium will shift in direction where gaseous moles are less.

(a)[tex] 2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)[/tex]

ΔH = 92kJ  Endothermic reaction

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

On decrease in volume:

Equilibrium will shift in left that is the backward direction.

(b) [tex]N_2(g) + O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)[/tex]

ΔH =181kJ  Endothermic reaction

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

On decrease in volume:

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

(c) [tex]2O_3(g)\rightleftharpoons 3O_2(g)[/tex]

ΔH = − 285kJ  Exothermic reaction

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

On decrease in volume:

Equilibrium will shift in left that is the backward direction.

(d) [tex]CaO(s) + CO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CaCO_3(s)[/tex]

ΔH = − 176kJ Exothermic reaction

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

On decrease in volume:

Equilibrium will shift in right that is the forward direction.

The equilibrium of a chemical reaction in equilibrium will shift to nullify any constraint such as an increase in temperature applied on the system.

What factors affect chemical equilibrium?

The factors that affect chemical equilibrium include:

  • pressure
  • concentration
  • volume
  • Temperature

The principle of chemical equilibrium states that for a chemical system in equilibrium, equilibrium will shift to nullify any constraint applied on the system.

For the following equilibrium reaction:

(a) 2NH3(g) ⇌ N2(g)+3H2(g) ΔH = 92kJ

  • increase in temperature will shift equilibrium to the right
  • a decrease in volume will shift equilibrium to the right

(b) N2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2NO(g) ΔH =181kJ

  • increase in temperature will shift equilibrium to the right
  • a decrease in volume will have no effect on equilibrium

(c) 2O3(g) ⇌ 3O2(g) ΔH = − 285kJ

  • increase in temperature will shift equilibrium to the left
  • a decrease in volume will shift equilibrium to the right

(d) CaO(s) + CO2(g) ⇌ CaCO3(s) ΔH = − 176kJ

  • increase in temperature will shift equilibrium to the left
  • a decrease in volume will have no effect on equilibrium.
