ACTIVITY (of a component of an ideal mixture) A dimensionless quantity whose magnitude is equal to molar concentration in an ideal solution, equal to partial pressure (in atmospheres) in an ideal gas mixture, and defined as 1 for pure solids or liquids Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM A state of dynamic balance in which the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal; there is no net change in concentrations of reactants or products while a system is at equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM An equilibrium in which processes occur continuously, with no net charge Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT, K • A quantity that indicates the extent to which a reversible reaction occurs • Its magnitude is equal to the mass action expression at equilibrium • K varies with temperature Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
HETEROGENEOUS EQUILIBRIA Equilibria involving species in more than one phase Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
HOMOGENEOUS EQUILIBRIA Equilibria involving only species in a single phase; all gases, all liquids, or all solids Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
LeCHATELIER’S PRINCIPLE If a stress (change of conditions) is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system shifts in the direction that reduces the stress Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
MASS ACTION EXPRESSION aA + bB cC + dD Q (or K at equilibrium) = [C]c[D]d [A]a[B]b Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
REACTION QUOTIENT, Q • The mass action expression under any set of conditions (not necessarily equilibrium) • Its magnitude relative to K determines the direction in which reaction must occur to establish equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
REVERSIBLE REACTIONS Reactions that do not go to completion and occur in both the forward and reverse directions Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
VAN’T HOFF EQUATION The relationship between H0 for a reaction and its equilibrium constants at two different temperatures ln [KT2/KT1] = (H0/R)(1/T1 – 1/T2) Or log [KT2/KT1] = (H0/2.303R) (1/T1 – 1/T2) Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
For any reaction, the value of Kc (equilibrium constant) • Varies only with temperature • Is constant at a given temperature • Is independent of the initial concentrations Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
Q < K Forward reaction predominates until equilibrium is established Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
Q = K System is at equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
Q > K Reverse reaction predominates until equilibrium is established Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
If a change of conditions (stress) is applied to a system at equilibrium • The system responds in the way that best tends to reduce the stress in reaching a new state of equilibrium • Concentration changes • Pressure changes (volume for gas phase) • Temperature changes • Introduction of catalysts Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
When a “new equilibrium” is established • The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal again • Kc is again satisfied by the concentrations of reactants and products Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
A decrease in volume (increase in pressure) Shifts the reaction in the direction that produces the smaller number of moles of gas Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
An increase in volume (decrease in pressure) Shifts the reaction in the direction that produces the larger number of moles of gas Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
If there is no change in the number of moles of gases in a reaction A volume (pressure) change does not affect the position of equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
An increase in temperature Favors endothermic reactions Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
A decrease in temperature Favors exothermic reactions Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
n = ? n = (ngas prod) – (ngas react) Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
Kp = ? Kp = Kc(RT) n Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
Kc = ? Kc = Kp (RT)- n Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
For pure solids or liquids The activity is taken as 1, so terms for pure liquids and pure solids do not appear in the K expression for heterogeneous equilibria Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
G0 = ? G0 = -RT ln K Or G0 = -2.303 RT log K R = 8.314 J/(mol*K) Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
For equilibria that involve only gases The thermodynamic equilibrium constant (related to G0) is Kp For those that involve species in solution, it is equal to Kc Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
G0 < 0; K > 1 Products favored over reactants at equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
G0 = 0; K = 1 At equilibrium when [C]c[D]d…=[A]a[B]b…. (very rare Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
G0 > 0; K < 1 Reactants favored over products at equilibrium Created by Tara L. Moore, MGCCC
