Answer to Question #153427 in Organic Chemistry for jia

Question

1. Look at the following reaction: N2 O4 (g) 2NO2 (g) + 32.1 kJ What would you have to do to the reaction in order to increase the magnitude of K?

2. If Q < K, which way will the reaction proceed and why?

Answer 1

1- Answer ) : N₂O₄(g)  2NO₂(g) + 32.1 KJ

For Endothermic reaction, On increasing the Temperature, K value will increase. To Increase the magnitude of the K , the concentration of the product should be increased to increase the value of K .

2-  If Q< K , reaction will proceed in forward direction , reaction will move from left to right direction until all the equilibrium is reached
