Chemical Equilibrium. Flashcards
a reaction that goes in both directions
chemical equilibrium (reverse reaction)
what will happen to the k (eq) if the concentration changes
Nothing
what will happen to the k (eq) if the concentration changes
nothing
when does equilibrium happen?
when the rate of the reaction equals the rate of the product
what does it mean when the equilibrium constant is greater then 1
forward reaction (product favorite)
what does it mean when the equilibrium constant is less then 1
reverse reaction (reactant favorite)
when is the reaction quotient calculated?
at any time
The concentration ratio of the
products (raised to the power of
their coefficients) to the reactants
(raised to the power of their
coefficients) is called the
reaction quotient (Q)
what happens when reaction quotient (Q) is greater then. the Equilibrium constant
reverse reaction
what happens when reaction quotient (Q) is less then the Equilibrium constant
forward reaction
where does equilibrium go when concentration lowers
toward the compound
where does equilibrium go when concentration rasies
away from the compound
is keq constant in concentration
yes
is keq constant in presure ?
yes
what is the relationship between volume and pressure
inverse
