Exam 3 Flashcards
define equilibrium
point where concentrations of products & reactants no longer change - rate of formation of each is equal
define dynamic equilibrium
opposing processes occur at the same rate

left
positive
Kc is between _________, product concentration roughly equals reactants’

law of mass action
Kc = Qc at equilibrium
Qc > Kc:
reactants favored
Kc > Qc:
products favored
𝚫n =

reversing reaction effect on Kc
1 / Kc
multiplying equation effect on Kc
Kc^n
n = what you multiplied by
dividing equation effect on Kc
n√Kc
n = what you divided by
adding 2 equations effect on Kc
