If you add more ammonia, $\mathrm{NH}_{3}(a q),$ to the equilibrium mixture described by the chemical equation given below, what will happen? Explain your thinking. $$ \mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{6}^{2+}(a q) \leftrightharpoons \mathrm{Cu}^{2+}(a q)+6 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(a q) $$

What would happen to the reaction that produces ammonia if water is present in the reaction mixture? $$\mathrm{N}_{2}(g)+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(g)$$ Hint: Ammonia is very soluble in water.
Consider the reaction: 3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) ⇋ 2 NH3 (g) If this reaction is at equilibrium and the pressure is decreased, what will happen to the concentration of H2 and NH3?
