Equilibria And Redox Flashcards
Dynamic Equilibrium
When forward and backward reactions occur at the same rate in a closed system
What happens to the equilibrium when you increase pressure
More moles on one side
Equilibrium shifts to side with least mole
Increase of pressure opposed
Pressure lowered
What happens to the equilibrium when you increase concentration of reactants
Increased production of products
What are the compromise conditions for reactions in industry
60-70 atm
300 Degrees Celsius
Phosphoric acid catalyst
The order of balancing in a redox reaction
Electrons
Water
H+
Oxidation state of ionic compounds
Equal to the charge
Oxidation state of Oxygen and exceptions
2-
Exception: Oxygen is -1 in peroxide
Oxidation state of Hydrogen and exceptions
+1
Exception: -1 in metal hydrides and 0 in H2
What to Roman numerals represent in compound names
Dictates the oxidation state of the active ion
The one that isn’t hydrogen or oxygen
State Le Chatelier’s principle
When equilibrium in a reaction is disturbed, the equilibrium shifts to counteract the change
