Effects Of Changes On Equilibrium Flashcards
Where does the equilibrium shift if the the concentration of reactants
Increase
Decrease
Increase = to the right
Decrease = to the left
Where does the equilibrium shift it the concentration of products
Increase
Decrease
Increase = to the left
Decrease = to the right
If the number of moles of reactants is more than the products and the pressure is increased where does equilibrium shift
To the right
If the number of moles of reactants is less than the number of moles of the products and the pressure increases the equilibrium shifts
To the left
If the pressure increases and the reactants and products have the same number of moles the equilibrium shifts to the
It stays the same there is no change
In temperature increase where does the equilibrium shift if the forwards reaction is
Exothermic /\H -ve
Endothermic /\H +ve
To the left
To the right
In temperature decreases where does the equilibrium shift if the forwards reaction is
Exothermic /\H -ve
Endothermic /\H +ve
To the right
To the left
What happens to the rate of forward and backward reactions when a catalyst is added
They both increase
Do catalysts change the position of equilibrium
NO
What do catalysts do
Decrease the time taken for equilibrium to be reached
Give the equation for the yellow <—> orange experiment
2CrO4 -2 (aq) + 2H + (aq) <—> Cr2O7 -2 (aq) + H2O(l)
In the yellow orange experiment which way does the equilibrium move when the H+ ions are added
To the right
In the yellow orange experiment which way does the equilibrium move when the OH- ions are added
To the left
