Explain Le Chatelier's principle. What will be the effect of increase in temperature in production of ammonia. |
|
Answer» Answer: Effect of temperature: Since the forward REACTION is exothermic, the increase in temperature favors the backward reaction i.e., the DISSOCIATION of ammonia. That means ACCORDING to le Chatelier's principle, the SYNTHESIS of ammonia is favored at lower temperatures. Explanation: Le Chatelier's principle is an observation about chemical equilibria of reactions. It states that changes in the temperature, pressure, volume, or concentration of a system will result in predictable and opposing changes in the system in ORDER to achieve a new equilibrium state. |
