AIPMT PRELIMS 2003 Chemistry Reaction Quotient MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

The reaction quotient (Q) for the reaction : N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇌ 2NH₃(g) is given by Q = [NH₃]² / [N₂][H₂]³ . The reaction will proceed from right to left if :

A

Q = Kc

B

Q < Kc

C

Q > Kc

D

Q = 0

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The reaction will proceed from right to left if Q > Kc, as this indicates that the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, favoring the reverse reaction.
