Question

For the manufacture of NO by the reaction N2(g) + O2(g) <-> 2NO(g), with ΔH positive, the forward reaction is favoured if:

Accepted Answer

the temperature is increased. Since the reaction is endothermic (ΔH positive), increasing temperature shifts equilibrium toward products; pressure has no effect because moles of gas are equal on both sides.
