FINAL Flashcards
K =
[Products]/[Reactants
What is not included in the K expression?
Solids and Liquids
What is done to the K expression of a reaction in a Hess Law problem?
(1/k)^n
Q is the what?
Reaction Quotient
What is Q, before equilibrium?
Q<K
What is Q, at equilibrium?
Q=K
What is Q, after equilibrium?
Q>K
What principle states that the change in conditions will cause a reaction to try and counteract those changes?
Le Chatliers Principle
What are the three main changes to a reaction based on Le Chatliers principle?
Effect of Volume, Effect of Temperature, Concentration Effect
Effect of Volume
Increase Volume = Decrease Pressure -> rxn shifts to side with the MOST gas particles
Decrease Volume = Increase Pressure -> rxn shifts to side with the FEWEST gas particles
Effect of Temperature
Depends on whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic.
Concentration Effect
Increase Reactant -> Product Side
Decrease Reactant -> Reactant Side
Increase Product -> Reactant Side
Decrease Product -> Product Side
Change in volume, Adding a Inert gas and adding a catalyst, have what type of change to a reaction?
No change or effect
What makes a substance amphoteric and what are some examples?
The substance can act as an acid or base
Ex: H20, HCO3-, HS-, H2PO4-
What is the difference between and monoprotic acid and a polyprotic acid?
Monoprotic acid donates one H+ and a polyprotic acid donates more than one
