Document Summary

Some processes proceed both forward and reverse directions. Equal forward and reverse rates liquid vapour. Note: a system at equilibirum is not static. Equilibrium has to do with rate (giving it some time, equilibrium will always be reached) When we square the pressure (or concentration) of the products, and divide it by the pressure (or concentration) of the reactants, we end up with a constant. Kc (concentration of kp (pressure) at a given temperatiure homogeneous equilibrium. when everything is in the same phase hereogeneous equilibrium, when everything is not in the same state. With this kind of equilibirum, somethimes quantity doesn"t matter. When we"re using this chemical equalition, we often take the gaseous phases and ignore the solid phases in our calculations. The equilibirum equation aa + bb -> cc + dd. K = concentration (or pressure) of products / concentration (or pressure) of reactants k = ([c]c[d]d) / ([a]a[b]b)

We can restate this by saying that the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. Recall that with rate we are simply defining how fast a reaction is proceeding, a speed at which the reaction proceeds. Take note that when writing an equilibrium expression, pure liquids (denoted by l or 2) and pure solids (denoted by s) are omitted. Typically we express the equilibrium by K or Kp where c and p denote either concentration or partial pressure respectively. We refer to this value of K, or Kp as an equilibrium constant For any reaction, Kc can be written as the product of the concentration of products, raised to their stoichiometric coefficients, divided by the product of the concentration of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. See Equation (5-1) below for an example: aA(aq) + bB(aq-cC(aq) + dD(aq) (5-1) A] [B]b As mentioned before, K, or K, are equilibrium constants meaning that they will have the same value unless temperature is changed. This brings in two important ideas 1) We can perturb the equilibrium concentrations of a reaction, say [A] for instance which will cause the other concentrations to shift so that K for the reaction remains constant. 2) If we change temperature, we will either increase or decrease our value of K depending on the specific reaction we are examining. Determining K, and Equilibrium Concentrations During lecture we often discuss the idea of using ICE tables as a method for organizing and calculating concentrations of reactions as they proceed towards equilibrium. In a typical ICE table you need to know initial concentrations and the magnitude of K to determine the equilibrium concentrations. Alternatively, if you know the equilibrium concentrations for a reaction you can calculate K. For this experiment we will be examining a complex ion formation, when iron(III) ion
