  • Reversible Reactions and Dynamic Equilibriums
    • Equilibrium is only formed in a closed system
    • The reaction never completes
    • Concentrations remain constant
    • Rate of forward reaction = rate of reverse reaction
    • Ammonia
      • Manufacture
        • N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3
        • Hydrogen is made by:
          • Reacting methane and steam
            • CH4 + H2O --> 3H2 + CO
          • Cracking Hydrocarbons
            • C8H18 --> C8H16 + H2
        • Nitrogen
          • It is obtained from liquefied air
    • Le Chatiers principle
      • When dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions the reaction opposes change
      • Conditions that could change
        • Temperature
        • Pressure
        • Concentration
    • Forward and Reverse reactions
      • N2 + 3H2 2NH3
        • ^H = - 92kmol
          • Forward
          • Reverse
            • Endothermic as +92
        • Effects
          • Increasing Temerature
            • Shift to the reverse reaction
              • This is because it is endothermic as it takes in heat
          • Untitled
  • Pressure
    • Shifted towards the forward reaction
      • This is beacuse the left has the leastt particals
    • Effects
      • Increasing Temerature
        • Shift to the reverse reaction
          • This is because it is endothermic as it takes in heat
