EQUILLIBRIUM TUTORIAL 2

Question 1

• Dynamic equilibrium – a (terminal) state in which __ ___ _____ takes place
  because the forward and reverse reactions are occurring at the _____ rate
  i.e. rate (forward) __ rate (reverse)
• Product-favored rxn – when products are favored at equilibrium. We say:
  “equilibrium lies to the ____”
  .
  Reactant-favored rxn – when reactants are favored at equilibrium. We say:
  “equilibrium lies to the ____”
  .
  A(g)
  A reaction will always tend (spontaneously) towards its _________, and the position of the equilibrium is always
  the _____ for particular conditions.

Answer 1

Dynamic equilibrium – a (terminal) state in which no net change takes place
because the forward and reverse reactions are occurring at the same rate
i.e. rate (forward) = rate (reverse)
Product-favored rxn – when products are favored at equilibrium. We say:
“equilibrium lies to the right”
.
Reactant-favored rxn – when reactants are favored at equilibrium. We say:
“equilibrium lies to the left”
.
A(g)
A reaction will always tend (spontaneously) towards its
equilibrium, and the position of the equilibrium is always
the same for particular conditions.
