Chemical Equilibrium Chapter 14
Equilibrium is a state in which there are no observable changes as time goes by. • Chemical equilibrium is achieved when: • the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal and • the concentrations of the reactants and products remain constant • However, there is a lot of activity at the molecular level! • Reactants continue to form products, while products continue to yield reactants!

Writing Equilibrium Constant Expressions • The concentrations of the reacting species in the condensed phase are expressed in M. In the gaseous phase, the concentrations can be expressed in M or in atm. • The concentrations of pure solids, pure liquids and solvents do not appear in the equilibrium constant expressions. • The equilibrium constant is a dimensionless quantity. • In quoting a value for the equilibrium constant, you must specify the balanced equation and the temperature. • If a reaction can be expressed as a sum of two or more reactions, the equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is given by the product of the equilibrium constants of the individual reactions.

What does the Equilibrium Constant tell us? • We can use the equilibrium constant to calculate unknown equilibrium concentrations of products or reactants (at a constant temperature) • We can predict the direction in which a reaction will proceed to achieve equilibrium
What if the reaction is not yet at equilibrium? • Calculate reaction quotient (Qc) by substituting the initial concentrations into the equilibrium constant expression.
The reaction quotient (Qc)is calculated by substituting the initial concentrations of the reactants and products into the equilibrium constant (Kc) expression. • IF • Qc > Kcsystem proceeds from right to left to reach equilibrium • Qc = Kc the system is at equilibrium • Qc < Kcsystem proceeds from left to right to reach equilibrium

What do you do with the Kc and KP? • If we know the equilibrium constant for a particular reaction, we can calculate the concentrations in the equilibrium mixture from the initial concentrations!
Calculating Equilibrium Concentrations • Express the equilibrium concentrations of all species in terms of the initial concentrations and a single unknown x, which represents the change in concentration. • Write the equilibrium constant expression in terms of the equilibrium concentrations. Knowing the value of the equilibrium constant, solve for x. • Having solved for x, calculate the equilibrium concentrations of all species.
