Reversible reactions and equilibrium — practice question

Ammonia is made when nitrogen reacts with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst.
(a(i))[2]

Show the data on the grid and draw a smooth best-fit curve.

(a(ii))[1]

The student thinks that one of the data points is anomalous. Circle the anomalous point on the graph.

(a(iii))[1]

Use your graph to deduce the correct percentage of ammonia for the point circled in a(ii).

(b)[1]

The student chooses to carry out the whole experiment again. Why is this a good idea?

(c)[1]

Suggest why a catalyst is included in the experiment.

(d)[1]

Because the reaction between nitrogen and ammonia is reversible, dynamic equilibrium is reached. Use your graph to suggest the time at which dynamic equilibrium is first attained.
