CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM INTRODUCTION This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students understand selected topics at AS and A2 level Chemistry. It is based on the requirements of the AQA and OCR specifications but is suitable for other examination boards. Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes or it may be used for classroom teaching if an interactive white board is available. Accompanying notes on this, and the full range of AS and A2 topics, are available from the KNOCKHARDY SCIENCE WEBSITE at... Navigation is achieved by... either clicking on the grey arrows at the foot of each page or using the left and right arrow keys on the keyboard

4 CONCENTRATION CHANGE IN A REACTION
As the rate of reaction is dependant on the concentration of reactants... the forward reaction starts off fast but slows as the reactants get less concentrated FASTEST AT THE START THE STEEPER THE GRADIENT, THE FASTER THE REACTION SLOWS DOWN AS REACTANTS ARE USED UP TOTAL CONVERSION TO PRODUCTS In an ordinary reaction; all reactants end up as products; there is 100% conversion

5 EQUILIBRIUM REACTIONS
Initially, there is no backward reaction but, as products form, it speeds up and provided the temperature remains constant there will come a time when the backward and forward reactions are equal and opposite; the reaction has reached equilibrium. FASTEST AT THE START NO BACKWARD REACTION FORWARD REACTION SLOWS DOWN AS REACTANTS ARE USED UP BACKWARD REACTION STARTS TO INCREASE In an equilibrium reaction, not all the reactants end up as products; there is not a 100% conversion. BUT IT DOESN’T MEAN THE REACTION IS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE AT EQUILIBRIUM THE BACKWARD AND FORWARD REACTIONS ARE EQUAL AND OPPOSITE

6 DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM IMPORTANT REMINDERS
• a reversible chemical reaction is a dynamic process • everything may appear stationary but the reactions are moving both ways • the position of equilibrium can be varied by changing certain conditions Trying to get up a “down” escalator gives an excellent idea of a non-chemical situation involving dynamic equilibrium.

• a reversible chemical reaction is a dynamic process • everything may appear stationary but the reactions are moving both ways • the position of equilibrium can be varied by changing certain conditions Trying to get up a “down” escalator gives an excellent idea of a non-chemical situation involving dynamic equilibrium. Summary When a chemical equilibrium is established ... • both the reactants and the products are present at all times • the equilibrium can be approached from either side • the reaction is dynamic - it is moving forwards and backwards • the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant

8 THE EQUILIBRIUM LAW Simply states
“If the concentrations of all the substances present at equilibrium are raised to the power of the number of moles they appear in the equation, the product of the concentrations of the products divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants is a constant, provided the temperature remains constant” There are several forms of the constant; all vary with temperature. Kc the equilibrium values are expressed as concentrations of mol dm-3 Kp the equilibrium values are expressed as partial pressures The partial pressure expression can be used for reactions involving gases

9 THE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT Kc
for an equilibrium reaction of the form... aA bB cC dD then (at constant temperature) [C]c . [D]d = a constant, (Kc) [A]a . [B]b where [ ] denotes the equilibrium concentration in mol dm-3 Kc is known as the Equilibrium Constant

10 THE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT Kc
for an equilibrium reaction of the form... aA bB cC dD then (at constant temperature) [C]c . [D]d = a constant, (Kc) [A]a . [B]b where [ ] denotes the equilibrium concentration in mol dm-3 Kc is known as the Equilibrium Constant Example Fe3+(aq) NCS¯(aq) FeNCS2+(aq) Kc = [ FeNCS2+ ] with units of dm3 mol-1 [ Fe3+ ] [ NCS¯ ]

11 THE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT Kc
for an equilibrium reaction of the form... aA bB cC dD then (at constant temperature) [C]c . [D]d = a constant, (Kc) [A]a . [B]b where [ ] denotes the equilibrium concentration in mol dm-3 Kc is known as the Equilibrium Constant VALUE OF Kc AFFECTED by a change of temperature NOT AFFECTED by a change in concentration of reactants or products a change of pressure adding a catalyst

12 LE CHATELIER’S PRINCIPLE
”When a change is applied to a system in dynamic equilibrium, the system reacts in such a way as to oppose the effect of the change.” Everyday example A rose bush grows with increased vigour after it has been pruned. Chemistry example If you do something to a reaction that is in a state of equilibrium, the equilibrium position will change to oppose what you have just done

13 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CONCENTRATION The equilibrium constant is not affected by a change in concentration at constant temperature. To maintain the constant, the composition of the equilibrium mixture changes. If you increase the concentration of a substance, the value of Kc will theoretically be affected. As it must remain constant at a particular temperature, the concentrations of the other species change to keep the constant the same.

14 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CONCENTRATION example CH3CH2OH(l) + CH3COOH(l) CH3COOC2H5(l) H2O(l) the equilibrium constant Kc = [CH3COOC2H5] [H2O] = (at 298K) [CH3CH2OH] [CH3COOH]

15 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CONCENTRATION example CH3CH2OH(l) + CH3COOH(l) CH3COOC2H5(l) H2O(l) the equilibrium constant Kc = [CH3COOC2H5] [H2O] = (at 298K) [CH3CH2OH] [CH3COOH] increasing [CH3CH2OH] - will make the bottom line larger so Kc will be smaller - to keep it constant, some CH3CH2OH reacts with CH3COOH - this reduces the value of the bottom line and increases the top - eventually the value of the constant will be restored

16 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CONCENTRATION example CH3CH2OH(l) + CH3COOH(l) CH3COOC2H5(l) H2O(l) the equilibrium constant Kc = [CH3COOC2H5] [H2O] = (at 298K) [CH3CH2OH] [CH3COOH] increasing [CH3CH2OH] - will make the bottom line larger so Kc will be smaller - to keep it constant, some CH3CH2OH reacts with CH3COOH - this reduces the value of the bottom line and increases the top - eventually the value of the constant will be restored decreasing [H2O] - will make the top line smaller - some CH3CH2OH reacts with CH3COOH to replace the H2O - more CH3COOC2H5 is also produced

17 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CONCENTRATION example CH3CH2OH(l) + CH3COOH(l) CH3COOC2H5(l) H2O(l) the equilibrium constant Kc = [CH3COOC2H5] [H2O] = (at 298K) [CH3CH2OH] [CH3COOH] increasing [CH3CH2OH] - will make the bottom line larger so Kc will be smaller - to keep it constant, some CH3CH2OH reacts with CH3COOH - this reduces the value of the bottom line and increases the top - eventually the value of the constant will be restored decreasing [H2O] - will make the top line smaller - some CH3CH2OH reacts with CH3COOH to replace the H2O - more CH3COOC2H5 is also produced

21 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
PRESSURE When studying the effect of a change in pressure, we consider the number of gaseous molecules only. The more particles you have in a given volume, the greater the pressure they exert. If you apply a greater pressure they will become more crowded (i.e. they are under a greater stress). However, if the system can change it will move to the side with fewer gaseous molecules - it is less crowded. No change occurs when equal numbers of gaseous molecules appear on both sides.

30 FACTORS AFFECTING THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM
CATALYSTS An increase in temperature is used to speed up chemical reactions but it can have an undesired effect when the reaction is reversible and exothermic. In this case you get to the equilibrium position quicker but with a reduced yield because the increased temperature moves the equilibrium to the left. In many industrial processes a compromise temperature is used (see Haber and Contact Processes). To reduce the problem one must look for a way of increasing the rate of a reaction without decreasing the yield i.e. with a catalyst.

To reduce the problem one must look for a way of increasing the rate of a reaction without decreasing the yield i.e. with a catalyst. Adding a catalyst DOES NOT AFFECT THE POSITION OF EQUILIBRIUM. However, it does increase the rate of attainment of equilibrium. This is especially important in reversible, exothermic industrial reactions such as the Haber or Contact Processes where economic factors are paramount.

A low yield in a shorter time or a high yield over a longer period. The conditions used are a compromise with the catalyst enabling the rate to be kept up, even at a lower temperature.
