Why are solids and liquids not included in equilibrium calculations
|
b/c their concentrations dont change. Also, for this reason, we can omit solvents in dilute solutions
|
|
Unit of measurement when dealing with gases
|
partial pressures (which are equal to the concentration)
|
|
Two chemical states that are used in calculating equilibrium
|
1. aqueous dissolved particles
2. Gases |
|
t/f
the value for Keq for a given rxn is constant for a given temp |
t
|
|
Keq < 1
|
rxn favors reactants
|
|
Keq = 1
|
neither products nor reactants are favored
|
|
Keq > 1
|
rxn favors products
|
|
Compare Reaction Quotient to Keq
|
Q is the same rate as Keq, but it is for a rxn that has not yet reached equilibrium
|
|
Q < Keq
|
rxn proceeds in a forward direction
|
|
Q = Keq
|
rxn is at equilibrium
|
|
Q > Keq
|
rxn proceeds in reverse direction
|
|
The relationship of the reaction quotient to Keq is the basis of what principle
|
LeChatlier's principle
|
|
Le Chatlier's Principle
|
1. rxn is always trying to get to equilibrium
2. adding/ removing products or reactants pushes the rxn to favor that side, in order to compensate 3. heat is considered a product or reactant for exo/endotherm rxns, rsp. 4. inert gases and catlysts have not affect on this principle |
|
Molar Solubility
|
number of moles of a salt that will saturate a liter of H2O
|
|
Qsp < Ksp
|
more salt can be dissolved
|
|
Qsp = Ksp
|
solution saturated
|
|
Qsp > Ksp
|
excess salt will precipitate
|
|
Common Ion effect
|
A secondary rxn's reactants or products can effect whether another rxn favors the product or reactant side if the two equations share one or more ions in common (due to LCP)
|
|
Ksp for MX3
|
Ksp=27x^4
|
|
Ksp for MX2
|
Ksp= 4x^3
|
|
Ksp for MX1
|
Ksp= x^2
|
|
General solubility rule for slightly soluble salts
|
MXn, Ksp= n^(n)x^(n+1)
