08 Chemical Equilibrium Flashcards
1
Q
What is static equilibrium ?
A
State in which there is no change in both macroscopic and microscopic properties in a system
2
Q
What is dynamic equilibrium ?
A
When rate of forward reaction is equal to rate of backward reaction in a reversible reaction and the concentrations of both reactants and products are constant
3
Q
What does Le Chatelier’s principle state ?
A
When a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the system will counteract by shifting its position of equilibrium in a direction that will reduce disturbance in order to re-establish equilibrium
4
Q
Conditions for haber process ?
A
Temp : 450 (moderately high)
Pressure : 200 atm
Catalyst : finely divided Fe
