CHEM 1110 1st Edition Lecture 19Outline of Last Lecture I. Gas Movement in a SystemII. Non-ideal Gas Behavior Outline of Current Lecture I. The Concept of EquilibriumII. The Equilibrium Constant (K)III. Interpreting the Equilibrium Constant Current LectureI. The Concept of EquilibriumA. Chemical equilibrium 1. A reaction is reversible and is in a state of constant exchange (equilibrium is dynamic) where the forward rate of reaction is matched bythe reverse reaction 2. Reactant/product concentrations do not change with time for a given reaction (after it reaches equilibrium II. The Equilibrium Constant (K)A. Kc=Products/Reactants B. A chemical equilibrium is dynamic of the molecular level C. Haber processThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.1. At equilibrium, the concentration of reactants and products no longer change 2. For equilibrium to occur, neither reactants nor products can escape from the system 3. At equilibrium, a particular ratio of concentration terms equal a constant III. Interpreting the Equilibrium ConstantA. Is K>>1 the reaction is product-favored; product predominates at equilibriumB. K<<1, the reaction is reactant-favored; reactant predominates at
