What does hydrated copper sulfate look like?
Blue crystals
What does anhydrous copper sulfate look like?
White powder
What does anhydrous mean?
No water
Hydrated copper sulfate formula
CuSO4.5H2O
Dynamic equilibrium definition
Forwards and backward reactions in a closed system are simultaneous
Closed system definition
Nothing can get in your out
What happens to concentration at dynamic equilibrium?
They are constant not equal
What is static equilibrium?
No movement
What is new dynamic equilibrium?
Rate down is the same as rate up but in a new position
What is le Chatelier’s principe?
If the conditions of a system at equilibrium are changed, the position of equilibrium moves to oppose the change
What does le Chatelier’s principe do if the system gets hotter?
Equilibrium position moves to left in endothermic direction to oppose the increase in temperature + decrease the equilibrium yield of (element)
What does exothermic do to the system?
Makes it hotter
What does endothermic reaction make the system?
Colder
What happens if the delta h is negative?
Forward reaction is exothermic ( gives out energy )
What happens if the delta h is positive?
Forward reaction is endothermic
What does more gas particles mean?
More pressure
What happens if pressure increase in regards to equilibrium?
Equilibrium position moves to the right side with fewer molecules to oppose the increase in pressure + increases equilibrium yield of (element with more molecules)
What happens if concentration increases in regards to equilibrium?
Equilibrium position moves to right to oppose increase in concentration + increase equilibrium yield of (element)
What are the 2 types of compromise conditions?
Haber process
Contact process
What is the Haber process?
an artificial nitrogen fixation process and is the main industrial procedure for the production of ammonia today
What is the Haber process delta h value?
-76 Kjmol -1
Haber process calculation?
N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3
What is the contact process?
modern industrial method of producing sulfuric acid; it has largely replaced the chamber, or lead-chamber, process
