When nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia, the reaction can reach a dynamic equilibrium.
..............................................................................................................................................
..............................................................................................................................................
..............................................................................................................................................
(b) In industry, the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen is affected by the conditions used.
..............................................................................................................................................
..............................................................................................................................................
..............................................................................................................................................
(ii) The reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia is exothermic. The temperature
used is 450°C.
Explain how the use of a lower temperature would affect the equilibrium yield of ammonia.

..............................................................................................................................................
(iii) Even at 450°C, the reaction is very slow. State what is used in industry to overcome this problem.

(i) The reaction mixture is kept at temperatures between 50 and 150 °C. If a temperature above 200 °C
is used, only a small amount of phosgene is formed.
Suggest why only a small amount of phosgene is formed at temperatures above 200 °C.

.............................................................................................................................................
.............................................................................................................................................
(ii) Predict how the yield of phosgene will change if the reaction is carried out at a higher pressure.
Give a reason for your answer.[assume the reaction reaches a position of equilibrium]

(b) Iodine monochloride reacts reversibly with chlorine to form iodine trichloride.
(i) One feature of a reaction that is in dynamic equilibrium is that both the forward reaction and the
backward reaction occur simultaneously.
.............................................................................................................................................

.............................................................................................................................................
(ii) When the equilibrium mixture is heated, it becomes darker brown in colour.
.............................................................................................................................................
.............................................................................................................................................
.............................................................................................................................................
.............................................................................................................................................
The reaction is reversible and the reaction mixture can, if left for long enough, reach a position of dynamic
equilibrium.
The graph shows how the percentage of ammonia at equilibrium depends on the temperature and
pressure used.
..........................................................................................................................................................
2........................................................................................................................................................
..........................................................................................................................................................
(b) (i) Use the graph to state the effect on the percentage of ammonia at equilibrium of the following
changes
(ii) Explain why these changes have the effects you have given in (b)(i).
