The Equilibrium Constant, Kc Flashcards
1
Q
The equilibrium expression links the equilibrium constant, Kc, to the concentrations of reactants and products at equilibrium taking the stoichiometry of the equation into account
So, for a given reaction:
aA + bB ⇌ cC + dD
A
3
Q
What is the meaning of Kc
A
products over reactants
with number of molecules of each substance as a power
4
Q
units of [A] [B] AND [C] [D]
A
[A] [B] is mol dm-3 of reactants
[C] [D] is mol dm-3 of products
5
Q
