Question

For the equilibrium $N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)$, adding an inert gas at constant volume to the reaction mixture will result in which of the following?

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. At constant volume, the addition of an inert gas increases the total pressure of the system but does not change the partial pressures or molar concentrations of the reacting gases. Therefore, the reaction quotient remains equal to the equilibrium constant (), and the equilibrium state is undisturbed.
