Equilibrium is the point where the forward and reverse rxn are equal -both rxns still continue to take place, but there is no net change in amounts of R or P at equib -fill rate=empty rate
Dynamic equib means that product is constantly being created and destroyed but the amount is constant
Law of Mass Action:
Predicts the relationship between the amounts of reactants and products in the equib mixture -[] at equib determined by equib constant K, which depends on stoich not mechanism of rxn -K determines the relationship between the amounts of reactants and products at equib
Value of K depends on whether gas pressures or [] are used -when K is large, the equib mixture consists mostly of products -when K is small the equib consists mostly reactants
Kc=Kp(RT)-n Kp=Kc(RT)+n
The equib constant is a dimensionless quantity
Heterogeneous rxn involve reactants and products in different phases -pure solids and liquidshave []=1
When reaction mixture is not at equilibrium, Q is used to indicate Rxn's direction
Just remember when comparing Q to K P/R is the ratio
When rxn proceeds towards equib all initial concentrations change -at equib, contains a little of each ingredient
Watch it bc pure solids and liquids have concentrations that are always one -a system at equi disturbed by changing P, T, or concentration then system isnt at equib anymore
When volume is 1/2, pressure doubles
-adding solvent decreases concentration, bc it dillutes it -effect of temp depends on deltaH -catalysts do not affect equib position-lowers Ea and speeds up rate
Equib is dynamic so rxns both directions still occuring but no net change in amounts of reactant and product overall
Equib constant K completely determined by deltaG =-large negative delta G gives large K(products), while large positive deltaG gives small K K=e-G/RT
Arrhenius Acids: and bases only WATER acid: increase H+ in water base: increase OH- in water
Bronsted-Lowry Acids/Bases: acid: donate H+ base: accept H+
Charges on left must equal charges on right -acid/base strength related to amount of rxn -amount of rxn often called percent ionization %reaction=%ionization
-strong acids/bases completely ionize -for bases must watch stoich -weak acids only partially dissociate
-autoionization of water (dissociates spontaneously) H2O--->H+ +OH-
K is large for strong acids, so assume reactants are negligible -Strong bases completely ionize but must remember stoich
-polyprotic acids: dissociate to yield more than on proton -only first proton counts, ignore second proton since Ka is so small
-weak acids and bases do not completely dissociate -%concentration=equib value/inital
