Q

le chatliers principle

A

when an external stress (change in concentration,pressure or temperature) is applied to a system in dynamic chemical equilibrium, the equilibrium (point) will change in such a way as to counteract the stress

dynamic chemical equilibrium

A

reversible rxn in which fwd + rvs reactions are taking place at the same rate, and hence the concentrations of reactants and products are constant

Q

concentration of reactant increased

A

d: increase in [ reactant ]
o: according to LCP, the system will favour the reaction that uses up reactant
f: therefore fwd rxn favoured
e: eqm shifts right to restore eqm
r: result specific to rxn , mention that reactants decrease therefore products increase

Q

common ion effect w increase in product concentration

A

d: increase in [reactant] using common uon effect
o: according to LCP, system will favour rxn that uses up product
f: therefore rvs rxn favoured
e: eqm shift left to restore eqm
r: result, state that product decrease and reactant increase

16
Q

pressure

A

inversely proportional to volume
change in volume will affect concentration of all gases
both fwd + rvs rxn

17
Q

LCP decrease in volume

A

d: decrease in volume causes increase in pressure, both fwd+ rvs rates increase
o: according to LCP system favour rxn that produces fewer moles of gas (look at mole ratio )
f: rxn favoured
e: eqm shifts
r: specific to q

18
Q

LCP increase in volume

A

d: increase in volume causes decrease in pressure, both fwd+ rvs rates decrease
o: according to LCP system favour rxn that produces more moles of gas (look at mole ratio )
f: rxn favoured
e: eqm shifts
r: specific to q

19
Q

decrease in temperature favoured?

A

exothermic
decrease - exit- exo

20
Q

decrease in temp

A

d: decrease in temp
o: bith fwd + rvs rates decrease, LCP - system favor rxn that increases temp (produces energy) and therefore favour exothermic rxn
rest is rxn dependent

21
Q

increase in temp favour?

A

endothermic
IN crease ENdo

22
Q

increase in temp

A

d: increase in temp
o: bith fwd + rvs rates increase due to increase in Ek, LCP - system favor rxn that decreases temp (uses endothermic and therefore favour exothermic rxn
rest is rxn dependent

23
Q

energy product

A

energy released
heat of reaction negative
fwd rxn - exothermic
rvs rxn - endothermic

24
Q

energy reactant

A

energy used up
heat of reaction positive
fwd- endothermic
rvs: exothermic

25
Q

catalyst

A

always increases
equal effect on fwd + rvs reactions
eqm position unchanged
[reactants] and [products] remains same

26
Q

Kc

A

only for aq + g
mole coefficients become exponents
unaffected by change in pressure or concentration
affected by change in temperature (favour rvs to decrease, favour fwd- increase)

27
Q

find kc

A

use moles to get concentration
sub into expression
kc not at eqm- reaction quotient Q compare Kc to Q

28
Q

Ka

A

acid
large- strong acid ionises almost completely
small- weak acid, partial ionisation

29
Q

Kb

A

base
large- strong base dissociates completely
small- weak base

30
Q

Ksp

A

solubility product
production of ions
if possible- soluble
if negative- insoluble
