Intro to chemical equilibrium- Up to this point we have assumed that chemical reactions go to completion but this is not always true. - Dynamic equilibrium: for a chemical reaction it is the condition in which the rate of the forward reaction is equals the rate of the reverse reaction. - Rate laws: rateforward = Kforward [R], raterev = Krev[P], Kfor [R] = Krev[P]2. Equilibrium constant- Law of mass action: based on the relationship of the concentration and lots of data. For this reaction: aA + bB → cC + dD - Define the ration of concentrations: Q = ( [C]c [D]d ) / ( [A]a [B]b ) where q is the reaction quotient and lower case means the coefficients - When the reaction is equilibrium Q becomes K; K= ( [C]ceq [D]deq ) / ( [A]aeq [B]beq )These 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.3. Gas phase equilibria: Kp and Kc - For gases it is easier to measure pressure than concentration. PV=nRT but we canrearrange to solve for concentration (n/v) such that (P/rT)=(n/v)- Using pressure: Kp = (PC PD)/(PA PB)- Using the idea gas law: Kp = Kc (RT)Δn4. Homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibrium- Homogeneous equilibrium: all reactants and products are in the same phase- Heterogeneous equilibrium: reactants and products are not all in the same phase- We include molecules in the gas or aqueous phase. We do not include molecules in the solid or liquid phase.- If K is much much smaller than 1 then the reactants are favored in the reaction and little products are formed. - If K is equal to 1 then roughly half and half reactants and products are formed.- If K is much much bigger than 1 then the products are favored int eh reaction andthere is little reactants. 5. Variations in the form of the reaction and K- If the reaction is reversed, then invert K- If the reaction is multiplied by n, then raise K to the factor of n- If the reactions are added, then multiply the K’s together- K has no units6.
