Equilibrium

Question 1

Using A, B, C and D, explain dynamic equilibrium

Answer 1

Rate of A and B decreases with time

Rate of C and D reaction increases with time

Eventually rates of two reactions will become equal

A and B will be converting into C and D at the same rate the opposite is happening

Question 2

Define dynamic equilibrium.

Answer 2

Rate of forward reaction is equal to rate of the reverse reaction

Question 3

Define reversible reaction

Answer 3

Chemical reaction in which the reverse reaction contributes a significant amount4

Question 4

What is the main factor that effects reaction rate?

Answer 4

The higher the concentration, the higher the reaction rate

Question 5

What is the equilibrium constant Keq?

Answer 5

It states where the equilibrium of a reaction lies at a given temperature

Question 6

What does a larger K value indicate?

Answer 6

The more of C + D are produced and the reaction is favoured going to the right

Question 7

What Keq value indicates the reaction favours the products?

Answer 7

Keq > 1000

Question 8

What Keq value indicates the reaction favours the reactants?

Answer 8

Keq < 1000
