Chemical and Ionic Equilibrium 1 Question 21

22. For the chemical reaction,

$$ 3 X(g)+Y(g) \rightleftharpoons X_{3} Y(g) $$

the amount of $X_{3} Y$ at equilibrium is affected by

$(1999,2 \mathrm{M})$

(a) temperature and pressure

(b) temperature only

(c) pressure only

(d) temperature, pressure and catalyst

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. Both temperature and pressure will change the equilibrium amount of $X_{3} Y(g)$. Temperature changes the value of equilibrium constant.
