Question 1
What happens to the state of equilibrium when the temperature of a reversible reaction is changed?
- AIt may be disturbed
- BIt always remains unchanged
- CIt stops permanently
- DIt becomes irreversible
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
Changing the temperature can disturb an established equilibrium.
Question 2
For the reaction N₂ + 3H₂ ⇌ 2NH₃ the forward reaction is:
- AExothermic
- BEndothermic
- CNeither exothermic nor endothermic
- DAlways neutral
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
The formation of ammonia in this reaction is exothermic according to the chapter.
Question 3
What is the effect of increasing temperature on an exothermic forward reaction?
- AThe equilibrium is driven in the reverse direction
- BThe equilibrium is driven in the forward direction
- CThe reaction stops
- DThe catalyst is removed
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
Increasing temperature favours the endothermic direction which is the reverse direction for an exothermic forward reaction.
Question 4
What is the effect of decreasing temperature on an exothermic forward reaction?
- AThe forward reaction is favoured
- BThe reverse reaction is favoured
- CNo reaction occurs
- DThe equilibrium disappears
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
Lowering temperature favours the exothermic direction which is the forward direction in this reaction.
Question 5
If the forward reaction is exothermic what is the reverse reaction?
- AEndothermic
- BExothermic
- CNeither
- DAlways neutral
Show answerHide answer
Answer: A
If the forward direction releases heat the reverse direction absorbs heat and is endothermic.
