Q

The forward and reverse reactions
_________________ to occur.

A

CONTINUE

18
Q

The relationship between the concentrations of the reactants and
products may be expressed using the _________________________________________.

A

law of mass action expression/
equilibrium constant expression.

19
Q

where the [ ] is the concentration expressed in __________ and Keq is the _______________. If molar concentrations are used, Keq may also be referred as _______________.

A

molarity, equilibrium constant, Kc

20
Q

The law of mass action is ….

A

basically the ratio of the concentrations of the
products raised to their respective
stoichiometric coefficients to that of
the reactants.

21
Q

The law of mass action expression/ equilibrium constant expression
is written as:

A

see reviewer&raquo_space;

22
Q

Pure solids and pure liquids are excluded in writing equilibrium
constant expressions

A

TRUE!!

23
Q

Why do we omit pure
solids and pure
liquids in the
equilibrium constant
expression?

A

because they do not change significantly during reactions when enough is present to reach equilibrium.

24
Q

Keq ≫ 1

A
  • The equilibrium lies to
    the right of the
    reaction and favors
    the forward reaction.
  • Products predominate.
25
Q

Keq &laquo_space;1

A

The equilibrium lies to
the left of the reaction
and favors the reverse
reaction.
* Reactants predominate.

26
Q

The main application of chemical
equilibria in industrial process is to
____________ concentration by _____________________.

A

maximize the desired product, minimizing the
leftover reactants.
