Question Answer
TRUE OR FALSE: You can work out the equilibrium constant for any reaction as long as it has reached dynamic equilibrium FALSE You can only work out the equilibrium constant if the reaction is HOMOGENEOUS. It must also reach dynamic equilibrium
What does Kc tell you? Kc gives you an idea of how far to the left or right the equilibrium is
What is the equation for Kc for the general formula: aA + bB ⇌ dD + eE
Complete the sentence: Kc varies with... Temperature A change in temperature can change the position of equilibrium
Complete the sentences: Kc will increase when the quantities of the products __________ and the quantities of the reactants ____________. So an increase in Kc means the equilibrium has shifted to the _________. Kc will increase when the quantities of the products INCREASE and the quantities of the reactants DECREASE. So an increase in Kc means the equilibrium has shifted to the RIGHT.
Kc will decrease when the quantities of the products __________ and the quantities of the reactants ____________. So an increase in Kc means the equilibrium has shifted to the _________. Kc will decrease when the quantities of the products DECREASE and the quantities of the reactants INCREASE. So an increase in Kc means the equilibrium has shifted to the LEFT.
Using the equilibrium constant (Kc), how can you tell how much the position of equilibrium has moved? The greater the increase or decrease in Kc, the more equilibrium has moved
