Q

Define dynamic equilibrium

A

In a sealed container, when the forawards and backwards reactions are happening at the same rate, and concentrations of reactants and products remain unchanged

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when a substance is added

A
  • Excess needs to be removed
  • Equalibrium shifts other side
  • Because forwards/backwards reaction uses it up

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when you remove a substance

A
  • The product needs to be replaced
  • The equalibrium shifts to the same side
  • The forwards/backwards reaction creates the product

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when pressure is increased

A
  • We need to lower the pressure
  • The equalibirum shifts left/right
  • As there are fewer moles on the left/right

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when pressure is decreased

A

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when temperature is increased

A
  • We need to lower the temperature
  • The equalibrium will shift left/right
  • As the backwards/forwards reaction is endothermic

Q

Which way will equalibrium shift when temperature is decreased

A
  • We need to increase temperature
  • Equalibirum shifts left/right
  • As forwards/backwards is exothermic
