Transcript of Lecture 4 Equilibrium Part 1 PPT
Equilibrium – Chapter 13In the 1st semester treated reactions as if they all went all the way.
But do all reactions go all the way?
If they do stop after only going part way, what stops them?
Think about dissolving table salt in water: NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl¯(aq)⇄
How does the solid know when to stop dissociating in water?

CO + H2O ⇄ CO2 + H2
Forward rate = kfwd[CO][H2O]Reverse rate = krev[CO2][H2]
The Changes with Time in the Rates of Forward and Reverse Reactions
At equilibrium, the forward rate equals the back rate. K is the ratio of the forward to back rate constants.

THE VALUE OF K IS A CONSTANT AT CONSTANT TEMPERATURE, NO
MATTER WHAT.
If you start with only A and B, the concentrations will change until the equilibrium condition is met.
If you start with only C and D, the concentrations will change until the same equilibrium condition is met.
The equilibrium constant expression for the reaction 4 NH3(g) + 5 O2(g) ⇌ 4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g) is

Consider the equilibrium reaction2N2(g) + O2(g) 2N⇌ 2O(g)
In a particular experiment, the equilibrium concentration of N2 is 0.048 M, of O2, 0.093 M, and of N2O, 6.55 10-21 M. What is the value of the equilibrium constant K?

SUMMARY OF WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
1. When forward rate = back rate, you have an equilibrium
2. Equilibrium constant K = kfwd/kback
3. K is a constant (if temp constant)
4. K in terms of concentrations is ba

Products over reactants to the power of their stoichiometry.
Concentration units for K – somewhat different from the book
(most common units, called thermodynamic K)
Use Molarity for solutions
Use atmospheres for gases: from PV=nRT, n/V = P[1/RT]
Pure liquids or solids are defined to have a concentration of 1
K can be composed of mixed concentration units, but it has no units itself: 2H+(aq) + 2Na(s) 2Na+(aq) + H⇄ 2(g)
We will use units of atm and M. What do Kc and Kp mean?
Numerical value of K will depend on the units used.
Concentrations of pure liquids and solids are defined to be 1
Consider the reaction for dissolving AgCl in water:AgCl(s) ⇄ Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) K = 1.6x10-10
Since AgCl is a pure solid, in the equilibrium constant expression it is given a value of 1 Physically this makes sense - as the AgCl dissolves, the amount of AgCl will decrease, but its concentration will be constant -

The value of K can be VERY big or VERY small - really any positive number - for CH3O2 + NO2 ⇄ CH3O2NO2, K= 1.2 X 1033
for O3 + NO ⇄ NO2 + O2, K = 5.8 10-34
for I2 + H2 ⇄ 2HI Kc = 0.50
•When K is very large, the reaction goes nearly to completion
•When K is very small, the reaction goes very little in the direction written
•When K is moderate, the reaction stops somewhere near the middle.
New understanding
I2 + H2 ⇄ 2HI
An equilibrium expression defines a forward and back directions, but does not necessarily imply the direction
This reaction would equally well have been written as 2HI ⇄ I2 + H2
New understanding
direction the reaction will proceed in depends on two things: 1) starting conditions (concentrations of reactants and products initially)
2) value of K: large K suggests equilibrium position favors products, K<<1 suggests equilibrium position favors reactants (i.e., reaction, as written, does not go far towards products)
similarly, the terms products and reactants refer to the direction the reaction is written in, not necessarily the direction it will proceed in.
A B⇄
If K = 100, then at equilibrium [B] is 100x greater than [A].
Product is favored.kforward > kback
If K = 0.01, then at equilibrium [A] is 100x greater than [B]
Reactant is favored. kforward< kback
The value of K for the reaction A B ⇌is 1.4 1015. At equilibrium,
a. The amount of A is slightly less than the amount of B.
b. The amount of A is much larger than the amount of B.
c. The amount of A is much less than the amount of B.
d. The amount of A is very close to the amount of B.
e. More information is needed to make any statement about the relative amounts of A and B.
REMEMBER:
1.Reactions don’t all go to completion
2.K is the quantitative measure of how far the reaction goes
3.K = kfwd/kbak
4.Equilibrium is dynamic – even after it appears reaction has ended, microscopically both forward and back reactions continue to occur
The Value of K Depends On How You Write the Reaction
Products over reactants to the power of their stoichiometry.
The value K depends on how you write the reaction

When you add two reactions to get a new reaction, you multiply the Ks to get the new K.
What is K for the reaction:
HCl(g) + 1/2I2(g) ↔ ICl(g) + 1/2H2 (g)
Given the following K values:
2HCl(g) ↔ Cl2 (g) + H2 (g) K = 4.2x10-3
2ICl(g) ↔ Cl2 (g) + I2 (g) K=5.4x10-4
