    The document describes three scenarios for chemical equilibrium involving the reaction of 3A to 2A. Scenario 1 is endothermic, so a high temperature and pressure favor the forward reaction. Higher temperatures and pressures cannot be used due to economic and safety concerns. A catalyst would allow the reaction to reach equilibrium faster. Scenario 2 is exothermic, so a lower temperature and high pressure favor the forward reaction. Industry uses a higher temperature to increase reaction rates despite lowering yield, as it provides a reasonable compromise. High pressure cannot be used due to safety and economic issues. Scenario 3 is also endothermic, so a high temperature and pressure favor the forward reaction, but higher temperatures cannot be used due to economic concerns and higher

    Scenario 1

    3A

    2A

    +127kJmol-1

    To achieve high equilibrium yield use: High temperature because the forward reaction is endothermic High Pressure because forward reaction produces fewer moles- from 3moles => 2 moles

    Why is not higher temperature used? Uneconomical Why is high pressure not used? Health hazards dangerous Uneconomical

    Catalyst increases ROR in both direction by proving an alternative route with a lower Ea. This means equilibrium would be reached much faster.

    Scenario 2

    3A

    2A

    -336kJmol-1

    To achieve high equilibrium yield use: Lower the temperature because the forward reaction is exothermic High Pressure because forward reaction produces fewer moles- from 3moles => 2 moles

    Why is a higher temperature used in industry? Faster Rates of Reaction Compromise in Quicker equilibrium reached temperature is made achieve a Why is high pressure not used? to reasonable ROR without reducing Health hazards dangerous yield significantly. Uneconomical

    Scenario 3

    3A

    2A

    -336kJmol-1

    To achieve high equilibrium yield use: High temperature because the forward reaction is endothermic High Pressure because forward reaction produces fewer moles- from 3moles => 2 moles

    Why is not higher temperature used? Uneconomical Why is high pressure not used even though it gives higher yield? This is because there is no significant change in the yield with high pressure.
