14.1: Equilibrium Constant, Keq • Objective: • To write the equilibrium constant expression for a chemical reaction.
Reversible Reactions and Equilibrium • Reversible Reaction: A chemical reactions in which products re-form the original reactants. • Arrows that point in opposite directions are used to indicate a reaction is reversible. • Example: H2(g) + I2(g) 2HI(g) • Chemical Equilibrium: A state of balance in which the rate of a forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reactions and the concentrations of products and reactants remain unchanged.
Equilibrium Constant, Keq • Equilibrium Constant, Keq: a number that relates that concentrations of starting materials and products of a reversible chemical reaction to one another at a given temperature. aA + bB cC + dD coefficient concentration
Writing an Equilibrium Constant Expression • Step 1: Balance the chemical equation. • Step 2: Set up your Keq expression with the products on the top of a fraction and the reactants on the bottom of a fraction. • Step 3: Raise each substance's concentration to the power equal to the substance’s coefficient in the balanced equation. • Note: Solids (s) and pure liquids (l) are not used in the expression because their concentrations do not change.
