1
New cards
Reversible Reaction
A chemical reaction that can proceed in both forward and reverse directions.
2
New cards
Dynamic Equilibrium
A state in which the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, resulting in no net change in concentrations.
3
New cards
Equilibrium Constant (Kₓ)
The ratio of the concentrations of products to reactants at equilibrium, constant at a given temperature.
4
New cards
Le Chatelier’s Principle
The principle stating that an equilibrium system will adjust to counter changes in concentration, temperature, or pressure.
5
New cards
Reaction Quotient (Q)
A measure of the relative concentrations of reactants and products at any point in a reaction.
6
New cards
Condition for Equilibrium
A closed system where reactants and products are contained, allowing reactions to operate without interference.
7
New cards
Single Arrow (→)
Indicates a non-reversible reaction that proceeds only in one direction.
8
New cards
Double Arrow (⇌)
Indicates a reversible reaction in a state of dynamic equilibrium.
9
New cards
Factors Affecting Equilibrium Position
Concentration, temperature, pressure, and the presence of catalysts.
10
New cards
Homogeneous Equilibrium
An equilibrium where all reactants and products are in the same phase.
11
New cards
Heterogeneous Equilibrium
An equilibrium where reactants and products are in different phases.
12
New cards
Phase Equilibrium
The state of balance between phases, such as liquid and gas, within a system.
13
New cards
Vapor Pressure
The pressure exerted by a gas in equilibrium with its liquid phase at a given temperature.
14
New cards
Catalyst
A substance that increases the rate of chemical reactions without being consumed, not affecting equilibrium position.
15
New cards
Exothermic Reaction
A reaction that releases heat, favoring products at lower temperatures.
16
New cards
Endothermic Reaction
A reaction that absorbs heat, favoring products at higher temperatures.
17
New cards
Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium
Changes in temperature can shift equilibrium positions and alter the value of Kc.
18
New cards
Effect of Pressure on Equilibrium
Changing pressure affects equilibrium in gaseous reactions based on the number of gas molecules.
19
New cards
Effects of Concentration Changes
Adding or removing reactants or products affects the equilibrium position but not Kc.
20
New cards
Equilibrium Law
At a given temperature, the expression for the equilibrium constant is determined by the stoichiometry of the balanced equation.
21
New cards
Kc Expression Example
For the reaction aA + bB ⇋ cC + dD, Kc = [C]^c [D]^d / [A]^a [B]^b.
22
New cards
Phase Changes at Equilibrium
At equilibrium, phase changes like evaporation and condensation occur at equal rates.
23
New cards
Impact of Doubling Coefficients
Doubling the coefficients in a reaction results in the new equilibrium constant being raised to the power of two.
24
New cards
Impact of Halving Coefficients
Halving the coefficients results in the equilibrium constant being the square root of the original Kc.
25
New cards
Direction Prediction Using Q
Comparing Q to Kc helps predict if the reaction will shift forward or backward to reach equilibrium.
