Unit 4 Flashcards

Double arrow sign, means it reaches the balanced point or
equilbrium
the state of a chemical reaction in which its forward and reverse reactions occur at the equal rates so that the concentrations of the reactants and products dont have the net change over time
chemical equilbrium
an equilbrium of the moving system while forwards and reverse chemical reactions still keep going
Dynamic equilbrium
states that for a reversible reaction at equilibrium, the ratio of concentrations of products vs. reactants is a constant K
Law of mass action
At equilbrium point, the mass action expression is called
equilbrium constant (K).
At non-equilbrium point, the mass action expression is called
quotient (Q)
chemical compounds involved are just in one phase
homogeneous equilbrium
chemical compounds involved are in two or more phases
heterogeneous equilbrium
List out the concentrations at Initial and Equilibrium points through the counting of concentration Change
ICE approach
Material decreases in one side of equilbrium will cause corresponding material increase on the other side according to mole ratio
Analysis of material balance
If a system at equilibrium is disturbed by a change in temp, pressure or the concentration of one of the components, the system tends to adjust to a new equilbrium that could counteract (or adapt to) the change imposed (with minimum amount of effort)
Le Chatelier’s Principle
is a substance that dissolves in water to increase the concentration of H
acid
is a substance that dissolves in water to increase the concentration of OH
base
is a substance that donates a proton H to a base
acid
is a substance that acccepts proton H from an acid
base
allows acid-base reactions to occur more than just aqueous solutions
Bronsted-Lowry
For a substance to be a proton acceptor, it must have an unshared pair of elections
Lewis
The concentration of hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions is expressed as
pH
N2(g) + 3H2(g) –> 2NH3(g)
Haber process
is found by substituting reactant and product concentrations or partial pressures at any point during a reaction into the equilbrium-constant expression.
reactant quotient (Q)
if often used to represent the predominant for of H+ in water instead of the simpler H+ (aq)
hydronium ion (H30+)
is a substance that donates a proton to another substance
Bronsted-Lowry acid
is a substance that accepts a proton from another substance
Bronsted-Lowry base
one that can function as either a Broasted-Lowry acid or base, depending on the substance with which it reacts
amphiprotic
