'can someone tell me the answer to 'why is the yield of ammonia increase when pressure is increased?'
Or whatever that question was?
I'm pretty sure i wrote because there are less reactant than product molecules

how many ums will 34/35 in this exam be???


If grade boundaries stay the same as last year, 84/87.

It's the other way round - More reactant moles than product moles, so an increase in pressure sees an increase in the rate of reaction.

the asw is cos there r more moles of reactants then products...

I was devastated at this exam, i did 3 mocks and got two A*'s and one A, was really hoping for that in todays exam but i think i completely messed up. :'(

i felt exactly the same!


This is exactly how i felt too!

i failed on that question with the ions :') and what did everyone get for that question about how much ammonia can be made from 2g of nitrogen? i didnt get that...

i failed so hard 1st try at that question then i crossed everything out then tried again and got some like 2.48? i cant remember but some retarded number anyway...

I think you wrte it the wrong way round, there are more gaseous reactants than products

That's what I put, as I assumed you do 3x20

yeeesssss i did the same :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

would, because the reaction is endothermic get the mark?

Oh my god that is so annoying I wrote more and crossed it out to write less :|

unfortunately no - the question was to do with the moles of reactants compared to the moles of products.

i though the reaction was exothermic because if it was endothermic, the best yield would be produced at high temperatures. (endothermic= takes in heat during reaction)

Of course it is right. Well done :smile:


Someone just told me its the other way around :/

It is exothermic.

But for the pressure question (why does yield increase at higher pressures), that is more related with moles of reactant and moles of product.

For the question on 'Why is the yield of ammonia increased when pressure is increased?' I put ' there's less molecules on the right hand side then on the left, pressure Favors the side with the least amount of molecules''. is that right?


Yepp less on the right :smile:

oh right, i wrote that the reactants are forced towards the forward direction....is that right?

It is the other way round LOOL there are more molecules on the left hand side
