7.21 Equilibrium constant, Kc for the reaction

N₂ (g) + 3H₂ (g) ​⇌ 2NH₃ (g) at 500 K_c is 0.061

At a particular time, the analysis shows that composition of the reaction mixture is 3.0 mol L^–1 N₂, 2.0 mol L^–1 H₂ and 0.5 mol L^–1 NH₃. Is the reaction at equilibrium? If not in which direction does the reaction tend to proceed to reach equilibrium?

Eqb. moles               n(1 – a)   $\frac{n\alpha }{2}$           n_a            

total moles =   $n\left(1+\frac{\alpha }{2}\right)$

Eqb. pressure   $\frac{\left(1-\alpha \right)p}{1+\frac{\alpha }{2}}$ $\frac{\alpha p}{1+\frac{\alpha }{2}}$ $\frac{\left(\frac{\alpha }{2}\right)p}{1+\frac{\alpha }{2}}$

$\frac{K_p=\frac{\alpha p}{\left(1+\frac{\alpha }{2}\right)}\times {\left[\frac{\alpha p}{\left(2+\alpha \right)}\right]}^{\frac{1}{2}}}{\frac{\left(1+\alpha \right)p}{1+\frac{\alpha }{2}}}$

$K_p=\frac{{\alpha }^{\raisebox{1ex}{$3$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$2$}\right.}{p}^{\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$2$}\right.}}{{\left(2+\alpha \right)}^{\raisebox{1ex}{$1$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$2$}\right.}\left(1-\alpha \right)}$
