The buffer solution consists of undissociated weak acid, H2CO3 and its conjugate
base, HCO3.
When [acid] increased,

The equilibrium position will shift to the left to form undissociated H 2CO3. The
added H+ is removed and pH remains constant.
H+(aq) + HCO3(aq)

Then, the unstable H2CO3 will decompose into CO2 and H2O. CO2 is

Helium-5 is rarely found in nature because it has a very short half-life.

(a)

When a system in dynamic equilibrium is subjected to change,

the system will react
to remove the effect of the change
so that equilibrium is re-established.

b(i)

Forward reaction is exothermic.

Lowering the temperature will force the equilibrium position to shift to the righthand side.

More ammonia will be produced// [Ammonia] will increase.

Reverse reaction involves an increase in the number of (moles of) gaseous

particles.
Lowering the pressure will force the equilibrium position to shift to the left-hand
side.
Less ammonia will be produced// [Ammonia] will decrease.

A catalyst does not alter the equilibrium position (and the equilibrium composition).

It just increases the rates of forward and reverse reaction (by the same factor) so
that equilibrium is achieved in a shorter time.

[Ammonia] remain the same.

At low temperature (180C), the yiels of ammonia is high. However, the rate of
reaction at such a low temperature would be very slow// It takes a long time
for the yield to be achieved. In order to increase the rate of reaction, a catalyst
(iron) is added.

High pressure (2000 atm) would ensure a high yield. However, if the pressure is
too high, the cost of production would also be high because the pipes and
storage tanks have to be thick enough to withstand the pressure.
