For the reversible exothermic reaction, N₂ + 3H₂ ⇋ 2NH₃, increase of pressure would

A. Shift the equilibrium towards right

B. Give higher yield of NH₃

C. Both A and B

D. Neither A nor B

Answer: Option C

Solution (By Examveda Team)

By Le Chatelier's principle the increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium towards less number of moles side so, here the equilibrium shifts towards the right side thereby, increasing the concentration of $$N{H_3}.$$
