what is chemical equilibrium
concentrations dont change BUT are technically going back and forth at same rate
what is Q?
numerical value of the mass action expression for any values of concentrations or pressures of the reactants and the products. its equal to Keq formula but but Keq is at equilibrium and Q is not at equilibrium.
what does RICE stand for?
reaction, initial, change, equilibrium
what does an intermediate value of K mean? Kc= 24
comparable amounts of products and reactants at equilibrium
what does a very large K mean? Kc= 3 x 10⁸¹
favors formation of products
what does a very small K mean? Kc= 3 x 10 -⁸¹
favors reactants. not much product formed at equilibrium
when Q<K the reaction will proceed in the _____ direction 🔺️G
forward
when Q>K the reaction will proceed in the _____ direction. 🔺️G
reverse
when Q=K the reaction is at _______. 🔺️G = 0
equilibrium
🔺️Grxn<0 is _______ when Q<Keq. rxn proceeds(products favored)
spontaneous
🔺️Grxn>0 is ________ when Q>Keq. reverse rxn proceeds(reactants favored)
non-spontaneous
what does 🔺️G°rxn measure
hpw far the rxn is from equilibrium under standard conditions
what is Homogeneous equilibria
reactants and products in the same phase
what is Heterogeneous equilibria
reactants and products in different phases. solid and liquid and aqeuous do not get used to find Keq
what is Le Châtelier’s Principle
Factors that will change the relative rates of forward/reverse reactions or change the
value of Q compared to Keq will cause a shift in the position of equilibrium.
If total moles of gas does not change, then equilibrium ______ shift
will not
decreasing the volume increases the pressure, which also increases M, causing reaction to shift to the _____(think syringe)
right
according to Le Châtelier’s Principle if you Compress the reaction mixture
(decrease V or increase P) the rxn will shift ______
right
according to Le Châtelier’s Principle if you Expand the reaction mixture
(increase V or decrease P) the rxn will shift ______
left
Increasing temperature adds heat to the right side of equation(exothermic); reaction shifts ____
left
endothermic: increase temp-shift ____
decrease temp-shift ____
exothermic: increase temp-shift _____
decreased temp-shift ____
right, left, left, right
what does adding a catalyst do to rxn?
Systems reach equilibrium faster because activation energy (Ea) lowered, but NO CHANGE in K or G or position of equilibrium.
CO(g)+H2O(g)=CO2(g)+H2(g)
The water-gas shift reaction is an important source of hydrogen. The value of Kc for the reaction below is is 5.1 at 700 K. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of the four gases if the initial concentration of each of them is 0.0954 M.
Kc=([CO2][H2])/([CO][H2O])
CO(g) + H2O(g) = CO2(g) + H2(g)
0.0954 0.0954 0.0954 0.0954
-x -x +x +x
0.0954-x 0.0954-x 0.0954+x 0.0954+x
5.1=(0.0954+x)(0.0954+x)
(0.0954-x)(0.0954-x)
5.1=(0.0954+x)²
(0.0954-x)
square root both and solve for x
x= 0.0368 PLUG IN X
0.0954-0.0368= 0.0586 M CO and H2O
0.0954+0.0368= 0.1322 M CO2 and H2
1/4A(s) + 3B(g) = 2C(g)
For a reversible reaction the concentration of [C] at equilibrium is 0.0910 M, and K = 3.5 × 10^–3. Find [B] at equilibrium.
K= ([C]²)/([B]³) A doesnt count cause (s)
3.5 × 10^–3= (0.0910)²/[B]³
B³= (0.0910)²/3.5 × 10^–3
B=1.33 M
