EQUILIBRIUMEQUILIBRIUM
• Temperature, catalysts, and changes in concentration/ pressure affect
equilibria.
• The outcome is governed by LE CHATELIER’S PRINCIPLE
• “...if a system at equilibrium is disturbed, the system tends to shift its equilibrium
position to counter the effect of the disturbance.”

Equilibrium constant and Equilibrium constant and ConcentrationConcentration
Concentration changes
–no change in K
–only the position of equilibrium changes.

• At equilibrium with [iso] = 1.25 M and [butane] = 0.50 M. K = 2.5.
• Add 1.50 M butane.
• When the system comes to equilibrium again, what are [iso] and [butane]?

Solution
Calculate Q immediately after adding more butane and compare with K.
Q = [isobutane]
[butane]
1.250.50 + 1.50
= 0.63Q = [isobutane]
[butane]
1.250.50 + 1.50
= 0.63
Q is LESS THAN K. Therefore, the Q is LESS THAN K. Therefore, the reaction will shift to the ____________.reaction will shift to the ____________.Q is LESS THAN K. Therefore, the Q is LESS THAN K. Therefore, the reaction will shift to the ____________.reaction will shift to the ____________.

At the new equilibrium position, [butane] = 0.93 M and [isobutane] = 2.32 M.
Equilibrium has shifted toward isobutane..

Increase P in the system by reducing the volume (at constant
Temp).

NN22OO44(g) (g) 2 NO 2 NO22(g) (g)
Increase P in the system by reducing the volume.
In gaseous system the equilibrium will shift to the side with fewer molecules (in
order to reduce the P).
Therefore, reaction shifts LEFT and P of NO2 decreases and P of N2O4 increases.
Kc = [NO2 ]2
[N2O4 ] = 0.0059 at 298 KKc =
[NO2 ]2
[N2O4 ] = 0.0059 at 298 K

Consider the fizz in a soft drink
CO2(aq) + HEAT CO2(g) + H2O(l)
K = P (CO2) / [CO2]
• Increase T. What happens to equilibrium position? To value of K?
• K increases as T goes up because P(CO2) increases and [CO2] decreases.
• Decrease T. Now what?
• Equilibrium shifts left and K decreases.

Le Chatelier’s PrincipleLe Chatelier’s Principle
• Change T - changes K – causes change in P or concentrations at
equilibrium
• Use a catalyst: K not changed.Reaction comes more quickly to equilibrium.
• Add or take away reactant or product: K does not change
Reaction adjusts to new equilibrium “position”
