Nitrogen dioxide gas is dark brown in color and remains in equilibrium with dinitrogen tetroxide gas, which is colorless. 2NO2(g) ⇌N2O4(g) When the mixture was moved from room temperature to a higher temperature, the mixture turned darker brown. Which of the following conclusions about the mixture is true? The forward reaction is exothermic. The backward reaction has a negative net enthalpy. The colorless gas has a higher enthalpy than the brown gas. The equilibrium between the two forms of the gas is disturbed at high temperatures.

Walen:

first ans is wrong sorry, this question looked similar to one i answered a while ago

Walen:

the ans is probably "The equilibrium between the two forms of the gas is disturbed at high temperatures."

Walen:

because the gas gained a deeper color meaning the equilibrium shifted to the right when heated meaning it was disturbed
