TEST 3: 13, 14.1-14.6, 17.8-17.9 Flashcards
If Kc is much less than one it favors
reactants
If Kc favors reactants
equilibrium shift to the left
Q>K
products>reactants, reactant favored, shift left
Q<K
reactants>products, product favored, shift right
When a reaction is product favored the shift will cause
concentration of products to increase and reactants to decrease
Homogeneous equilibrium
in the same phase, excludes concentration of pure solids and liquids
Heterogeneous equilibrium
not in the same phase, excludes concentration of pure solids and liquids
In a reactant favored reaction, the rate of the forward
is slower than rate of reverse
A reaction will proceed forward
when Q<K, reactants converted to products
A reaction will proceed in the reverse
when Q>K, products converted to reactants
K»1
product favored
K«1
reactants favored
If Q<K gibbs free energy
is negative regardless of gibbs under standard conditions
What causes a change in Gibbs free energy to shift with equilbrium?
A concentration-gradient reflected in the fact that the change in entropy under non-standard conditions is not the change in entropy under standard conditions–remember the natural tendency to disperse evenly throughout a system
Change in instantaneous gibbs free energy that is positive
Q>K
Negative change in instantaneous gibbs free energy
reaction is not at equilibrium
When standard conditions are restored from equilibrium, the value of Q progressively decreases. This must mean that we have
standard change in gibbs free energy that is negative
Reversible reactions do not
go to completion
At equilibrium
no net change in concentration, rate forward = rate reverse, these reactions do not stop
A reaction will essentially go to completion if
K > 10^10
A reaction will essentially not occur if
K < 10^-10
What are not included in equilibrium constant expressions
solids and liquid
Kc does not depend on
initial concentrations
Kc changes when
temperature changes, directly related
Things to check when doing equilibrium constant calculations
Is it balanced? Are there solids or liquids? Are equilibrium concentrations given and not initial concentrations?
When volume is decreased
pressure increases and reaction shifts to less gas
La Chatelier
system changes rates
Shift right will cause
increase reactants, decrease products, rate forward increase
Shift left will cause
decrease reactants, increase products, rate reverse increase
Decrease pressure
shift right
Consider heat
reactant in endothermic, product in exo
Add heat in exo
shift left, heat added to products and temp increased
Add heat in endo
shift right, heat added to reactants
Equation free energy and Kq
delta G°= -RTlnK
R in delta G° equation
0.008314 kJ / mol
ΔG° < 0
K>1, products
ΔG° > 0
K< 1, reactants
Equation relating Q and free energy
ΔG = ΔG° + RTlnQ
ΔG = -RTlnK + RTlnQ
ΔG < 0
K > Q, products
ΔG > 0
K < Q, reactants
PH =
-log[H+]
Increasing Ka
increasing acidity
When the concentration of hydroxide ions is. less than hydronium ions
acidic
How to find the concentration of hydronium ions from hydroxide ions?
(1.0x10^-14) / given concentration
Hydronium ion
H3O+ ion, a hydrated proton
Conjugate base
everything that remains of the acid molecule after a proton is lost
