For a given equilibrium reaction, addition of inert argon gas at constant volume can shift the equilibrium in \(\mathrm{N}_2(g)+3 \mathrm{H}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{NH}_3(g)\)

  1. A forward direction
  2. B backward direction
  3. C remain unaffected
  4. D initially forward and then backward direction
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) remain unaffected

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The expression to \(K_p\) of an equilibrium state at a given temperature for addition of inert gases is \(K_p=K_n\left(\frac{p}{\Sigma n}\right)^{\Delta n_g} \)where, volume is constant, \(\left(\frac{p}{\Sigma n}\right)\) remains constant for any value of \(\Delta n_g\). So,…
