Frage Antworten
Kc/ Equilibrium constant A measure of the position of the equilibrium; the magnitude of an equilibrium constant indicates whether there are more reactants or more products an equilibrium system.
Homogeneous Equilibrium An equilibrium in which all the species are making up the reactants and products have the same physical state.
Heterogeneous Equilibrium An equilibrium in which the species making up the reactants and products have different physical states.
Equilibrium The rate of the forwards reaction is equal to the reverse.
Kp Used for gaseous equilibria. It doesn't use concentrations, instead requires partial pressures.
Partial Pressure It is the contribution each gas makes towards the total pressure. = mole fraction x total pressure.
What doesn't affect K? Concentration, pressure and catalysts don't affect K as they are quantities.
What affects K? Temperature does as its a condition.
Exothermic (increasing temperature) Favours endothermic direction Shifts to the left Kp decreases
Exothermic (decreasing temperature) Favours exothermic direction Shifts to the right Kp increases
Endothermic (increasing temperature) Favours the endothermic direction Shifts to the right Kp increases
Endothermic (decreasing temperature) Favours the exothermic direction Shifts to the left Kp decreases
Changing [B] / [A] Disables the equilibrium because K is a constant value and the expression is now higher/lower than k. [B] or [A] must increase or decrease until the expression is equal to k. When they are equal to k, equilibrium is restored.
Temperature (K) Quantities [B] / [A] don't change. Equilibrium is affected by temperature. K must change to a new value. This will disable the equilibrium as the values don't match k. So the quantities must adjust.
