20. Consider the following reaction:
For each of the following cases (a, b), the direction in which the equilibrium shifts is:
(a) Temperature is decreased.
(b) Pressure is increased by adding N2 at constant T.
1) (a) towards reactant, (b) towards product
2) (a) towards reactant, (b) no change
3) (a) towards product, (b) towards reactant
4) (a) towards product, (b) no change
(a) Temperature decreases implies Backward shift as it is endothermic reaction
(b) As ‘N2’ will not react with both N2O4 & NO2, as moles increases in reactants, as much as in products, a = hence there is no change in equilibrium.
Therefore no change
