Question
Questions 35-36 refer to the experiment described below.
H2 gas and N2 gas were placed in a rigid vessel and allowed to reach equilibrium in the presence of a catalyst according to the following equation.
3 H2(g) + N2(g) ⇄ 2 NH3(g) ΔH° = -92 kJ/molrxn
The diagram below shows how the concentrations of H2, N2, and NH3 in this system changed over time.

Which of the following was true for the system between time t1 and time t2 ?
The concentration of N2 decreased.
The temperature of the system decreased.
The number of effective collisions between H2 and N2 was zero.
The rates of the forward and reverse reactions were equal.
The rate of formation of NH3 molecules was equal to the rate of disappearance of H2 molecules.
