MCQ
In the gaseous equilibrium ${H_2}{X_2} + $ heat  $\rightleftharpoons$  $2HX$, the formation of $HX$ will be favoured by
  • A
    High pressure and low temperature
  • High temperature and low pressure
  • C
    Low temperature and low pressure
  • D
    High temperature and high pressure

Answer

Correct option: B.
High temperature and low pressure
(b) ${H_2}{X_2} + $heat $\rightleftharpoons$ $2HX$.

Reaction is endothermic and volume increasing in forward direction so according to Le chatelier’s principle for formation of $HX$, Temperature of the reaction should be high and pressure should be low.
