12 Terms

1

reversible reaction

a reaction were the products can also form the reactants. If one direction is exothermic, the other one is always endothermic

New cards
2

exothermic

transfers energy to the surroundings

New cards
3

endothermic

takes in energy from surrounding

New cards
4

equilibrium

when the forward and backward reaction in a reversible reaction happen at the same rate in a sealed container

New cards
5

le chatelier’s principle

when a change of conditions happens to a system at equilibrium, the position of equilibrium moves to cancel out the change

New cards
6

If the concentration of a system at equilibrium is increased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • equilibrium shifts to opposite side of substance which has increased concentration

New cards
7

If the concentration of a system at equilibrium is decreased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • equilibrium shifts to the side of substance which has decreased concentration

New cards
8

(for gaseous reactions)
If the pressure of a system at equilibrium is increased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • the equilibrium position will shift towards the side with the smaller number of molecules

New cards
9

(for gaseous reactions)

If the pressure of a system at equilibrium is decreased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • the equilibrium position will shift towards the side with the larger number of molecules

New cards
10

If the temperature of a system at equilibrium is increased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • equilibrium shifts to the endothermic side to increase products

  • the products at the exothermic side decrease

New cards
11

If the temperature of a system at equilibrium is decreased, what happens to the equilibrium?

  • equilibrium shifts to the exothermic side to decrease products

  • the products at the endothermic side increase

New cards

The equilibrium mixture is cooled.

Explain what happens to the concentration of the pink cobalt compound. [3]

  • concentration increases

  • because equilibrium moves to the left

  • because the reverse reaction is exothermic
