  1. Chapter 15 Chemical Equilibrium

  2. Overview • Equilibrium Reactions • Equilibrium Constants Kc & Kp • Equilibrium Expression product/reactant • Reaction Quotient Q • Calculations • Le Chatelier’s Principle • disturbing the equilibrium

  3. Overview, cont’d • All reactions are reversible • Dynamic Equilibrium • When the rates of the forward and • reverse reactions are equal • Reactions do not “go to completion” • Cannot use stoichiometric methods to calculate amount of products formed

  4. Equilibrium and Rates A B kf [A] = kr [B] forward rate = reverse rate [B ] = kf = constant [A] kr

  5. Equilibrium Constant Expression • Ratio of Products to Reactant • raised to each coefficient • for example, • N2 + 3H2 2NH3 • K = [NH3]2 [N2][H2]3

  6. cont’d N2 + 3H2 2NH3 Large K, more product Product Favored Small K, more reactant Reactant Favored

  7. In General: aA + bB cC + dD Kc = [C]c[D]d [A]a[B]b products reactants concentration

  8. Forms of Eq. Constant Expression CO(g) + H2O(g) CO2(g) + H2(g) Kc = [CO2][H2] [CO][H2O] 4HCl(g) + O2(g) 2H2O(g) + 2Cl2(g) Kc = [Cl2]2[H2O]2 [O2][HCl]4

  9. Cont’d 2HI H2 + I2 Kf = [H2][I2] [HI]2 H2 + I2 2HI Kr = [HI]2 = 1 [H2][I2] Kf

  10. Cont’d 2{ 2HI H2 + I2 } Kf = [H2][I2] [HI]2 4HI 2H2 + 2I2 K = Kf2 = [H2]2[I2]2 [HI]4

  12. Review values of K: N2 + 3H22NH3 Large K, more product K > > 1 Product Favored N2 + 3H22NH3 Small K, more reactant Reactant Favored K < < 1

  13. Example: N2 + 3H2 2NH3 Kc = 4.34 x 10-3 at 300°C = [NH3]2 [H2]2 [N2] • What is K for reverse reaction? • What is K for 2N2 + 6H2 4NH3 ? • What is K for 4NH3 6H2 + 2N2 ? Kc reverse = 230 Kc = 1.88 x 10-5 Kc = 5.31 x 104

  14. Heterogeneous Equilibria: • When pure solid or liquid is involved • Pure solids & liquids do not appear in the equilibrium constant expression • When H2O is a reactant or product and is the solvent • H2O does not appear in the equilibrium constant expression

  15. both are constant Examples: • CaCO3(s) CaO(s) + CO2(g) • conc. = mol = g/cm3 = density cm3 g/mol MM • Kc = [CaO] [CO2] = (constant 1) [CO2] [CaCO3] (constant 2) • Kc’ = Kc (constant 2) = [CO2] (constant 1)

  16. Multi-Step Equilibria AgCl(s) Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)K1 = [Ag+][Cl-] Ag+(aq) + 2NH3(aq) Ag(NH3)2+(aq)K2 = [Ag(NH3)2+] [Ag+][NH3]2 AgCl(s) + 2NH3(aq) Ag(NH3)2+(aq) + Cl-(aq) Ktot = K1 K2 = [Ag(NH3)2+][Cl-] [NH3]2

  17. Problem: 1.00 mole of H2 & 1.00 mole of I2 are placed in a 1.0 L container at 520 K and allowed to come to equilibrium. Analysis reveals 0.12 mol of HI present at equilibrium.Calculate Kc. H2(g) + I2(g) 2HI(g) initial 1.00 1.00 0 change -0.06 -0.06 +0.12 equil. 0.94 mol 0.94 mol +0.12 Kc = (0.12)2 = 1.6 x 10-2 (0.94)(0.94)

  18. Conversion between Kp and Kc • Kc • Equilibrium constant using concentrations • Kp • Equilibrium constant using partial pressures Kp = Kc (RT)DnP = n RT V R = 0.0821 L atm/mol K T = Temperature in KDn = tot. mol product - tot. mol reactant

  19. Problem: For 2SO3(g) 2SO2(g) + O2(g) Kc = 4.08 x 10-3 at 1000 K. Calculate Kp. Kp = Kc(RT)Dn = 4.08 x 10-3 (0.0821 x 1000)1 Kp = 0.0335

  20. Problem: For 3H2(g) + N2(g) 2NH3(g) Kc = 0.105 at 472°C. Calculate Kp. Kp = Kc(RT)Dn = 0.105 (0.0821 x 745)-2 Kp = 2.81 x 10-5

  21. Applications of Eq. Constants • Reaction Quotient • Non-equilibrium concentrations used in the equilibrium constant expression Q = K Reaction is at equilibrium Q > K Reaction will shift left to equilibrium Q < K Reaction will shift right to equilibrium

  22. Problem: Kc = 5.6 x 10-12 at 500 K for I2(g) 2I(g) [I2] = 0.020 M & [I] = 2.0 x 10-8 M. Is the reaction at equilibrium? Which direction will it shift to reach equilibrium? Q = [I ]2 = (2.0 x 10-8)2 = 2.0 x 10-14 [I2] (0.020) Q < K (2.0 x 10-14)<(5.6 x 10-12) Reaction Shifts Right to get to equilibrium not at equilibriumbecause Q  K

  23. Calculation of Eq. Concentrations • use the stoichiometry of reaction • initial concentration of all species • change that occurs to all species • equilibrium concentration of all species • reaction will occur to reach the equilibrium point no matter the direction of reaction

  24. Problem: Cyclohexane, C6H12(g), can isomerize to form methylcyclopentane, C5H9CH3(g). The equilibrium constant at 25°C is 0.12. If the original amount was 0.045 mol cyclohexane in a 2.8 L flask, what are the concentrations at equilibrium? C6H12 C5H9CH3 initial 0.045 mol 0 change -x +x equil. 0.045 - x x

  25. Cont’d 0.12 = (x) (0.045 - x) Solve for x which is the equilibrium concentration of methylcyclopentane or the product x = 4.8 x 10-3 mol C5H9CH3 in 2.8 L flask [C5H9CH3] = 1.7 x 10-3 M [C6H12] = 1.4 x 10-2 M

  26. Problem: For the reaction H2 + I2 2HI the Kc = 55.64. You start with 1.00 mol H2 and 1.00 mol I2 in a 0.500 L flask. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all species? H2 + I2 2HI initial 2.00 M 2.00 M 0 change -x -x +2x equil. 2.00 - x 2.00 - x 2x

  27. Cont’d perfect square 55.64 = (2x)2 (2.00 -x)2 (55.64)½ = (2x)2 (2.00 -x)2 x = 1.58 M [HI] = 3.16 M [H2] = 0.42 M [I2] = 0.42 M = 2x = 2.00 - x = 2.00 - x ½

  28. Problem: For the reaction H2 + I2 2HI the Kc = 55.64. You start with 1.00 mol H2 and 0.50 mol I2 in a 0.500 L flask. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all species? H2 + I2 2HI initial 2.00 M 1.00 M 0 change -x -x +2x equil. 2.00 - x 1.00 - x 2x

  29. Cont’d Kc = [HI]2 [H2][I2] 55.64 = (2x)2 (2.00 -x)(1.00 -x) reduces to a quadratic equation: x2 - 3.232 x + 2.155 = 0 not a perfect square

  30. Quadratic Equation x = - b ± b2 - 4ac 2a for ax2 + bx + c = 0 ½

  31. Cont’d ½ x = +3.232 ± 10.446 - 8.62 2 x = 1.616 ± 0.6755 [HI] = 1.88 M [H2] = 1.06 M [I2] = 0.060 M = 2x = 2.00 - x = 1.00 - x

  32. Le Chatelier’s Principle • When a stress is applied to an equilibrium reaction, the equilibrium shifts to reduce the stress • Types of Stress • Addition or removal of reactant • Addition or removal or product • Increase or decrease of temperature • Change in pressure or volume
