Question 1

Consider the following equilibrium: $$\text{N}_2\text{O}_4(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NO}_2(g) \quad \Delta H = +58 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$$ A sample of the gas mixture at equilibrium is initially at a temperature of 298 K. (a) Predict the direction of equilibrium shift when the temperature is increased to 350 K. [1] (b) Explain your prediction using Le Châtelier's principle. [1]
