Question

A solution of ammonia NH3(aq) is at equilibrium. How would the equilibrium

Answer 1

Answer: The equilibrium will shift in the direction of $NH_3$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the aqueous solution of ammonia follows:

$NH_3+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NH_4^++OH^-$

According to Le-chtelier's principle:

If there is any change in the variables of the reaction, then the equilibrium will shift in that direction of equilibrium to minimize the effect.

If we add more amount of $NH_4^+$ to the solution, more of the products will be present. But according to Le-chtelier's principle, to minimize this effect, the equilibrium will shift in the backward direction that in the direction of $NH_3$

Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the direction of $NH_3$
