The partial pressures of an equilibrium mixture of $H_2$,$N_2$,and $NH_3$ are $2 \, atm$,$1 \, atm$,and $3 \, atm$ respectively. If the value of $K_P$ for the reaction $N_2 + 3H_2 \rightleftharpoons 2NH_3$ at $725 \, K$ is $4.28 \times 10^{-5} \, atm^{-2}$,in which direction will the reaction proceed?

  • A
    Forward
  • B
    Backward
  • C
    No reaction
  • D
    Cannot be determined
