The Concept of Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium occurs when a reaction and its reverse reaction proceed at the same rate. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
5
The Concept of Equilibrium
As a system approaches equilibrium, both the forward and reverse reactions are occurring. At equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions are proceeding at the same rate. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
6
A System at Equilibrium
Once equilibrium is achieved, the amount of each reactant and product remains constant. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
7
Depicting Equilibrium
Since, in a system at equilibrium, both the forward and reverse reactions are being carried out, we write its equation with a double arrow. N2O4 (g) 2 NO2 (g) © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
8
Dynamic Equilibrium A dynamic equilibrium exists when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. There is no further change in [reactant] or [product]. How fast you get to equilibrium depends on kinetics. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
9
The Equilibrium Constant
© 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
10
The Equilibrium Constant
Forward reaction: N2O4 (g) 2 NO2 (g) Rate Law: Rate = kf [N2O4] © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
11
The Equilibrium Constant
Reverse reaction: 2 NO2 (g) N2O4 (g) Rate Law: Rate = kr [NO2]2 © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
12
The Equilibrium Constant
Therefore, at equilibrium Ratef = Rater kf [N2O4] = kr [NO2]2 Rewriting this, it becomes kf kr [NO2]2 [N2O4] = © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
13
The Equilibrium Constant
The ratio of the rate constants is a constant at that temperature, and the expression becomes Keq = kf kr [NO2]2 [N2O4] = © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
14
Summary At equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products no longer change with time. For equilibrium to occur, neither reactants nor products can escape from the system. 3. At equilibrium a particular ratio of concentration terms equals a constant. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
15
The Equilibrium Constant
Consider the generalized reaction aA + bB cC + dD The equilibrium expression for this reaction would be Kc = [C]c[D]d [A]a[B]b © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
16
The Equilibrium Constant
Since pressure is proportional to concentration for gases in a closed system, the equilibrium expression can also be written Kp = (PCc) (PDd) (PAa) (PBb) © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
17
Keq vs Kc vs Kp Keq = the general expression for equilibrium constant expressions. Kc = Keq for which molar concentrations were used to evaluate the constant (i.e. subscript “c” = concentration). Kc includes Ka (weak acids) and Kb (weak bases) (Chapter 16) Ksp (solubility product) (Chapter 17) Kw (water) Kp = Keq where “p” stands for pressure © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
18
Relationship Between Kc and Kp
From the Ideal Gas Law we know that PV = nRT Rearranging it, we get P = RT n V If we express volume in liters the quantity (n/V) is equivalent to molarity. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
19
Relationship Between Kc and Kp
Plugging this into the expression for Kp for each substance, the relationship between Kc and Kp becomes Kp = Kc (RT)n where n = (moles of gaseous product) - (moles of gaseous reactant) © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

22
Equilibrium Can Be Reached from Either Direction
As you can see, the ratio of [NO2]2 to [N2O4] remains constant at this temperature no matter what the initial concentrations of NO2 and N2O4 are. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

Manipulating Equilibrium Constants
The equilibrium constant of a reaction in the reverse reaction is the reciprocal of the equilibrium constant of the forward reaction. 2. The equilibrium constant of a reaction that has been multiplied by a number is the equilibrium constant raised to a power that is equal to that number. 3. The equilibrium constant for a net reaction made up of two or more steps is the product of the equilibrium constants for the individual steps. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

Equilibrium Calculations
1. Tabulate all the known initial and equilibrium concentrations of the species that appear in the equilibrium-constant expression. 2. For those species for which both the initial and equilibrium concentrations are known, calculate the change in concentration that occurs as the system reaches equilibrium. 3. Use the stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, use the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation) to calculate the changes in concentration of all the other species in the equilibrium. 4. From the initial concentrations and the changes in concentration, calculate the equilibrium concentrations. These are then used to evaluate the equilibrium constant. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

The Reaction Quotient (Q)
Q gives the same ratio the equilibrium expression gives, but for a system that is not at equilibrium. To calculate Q, one substitutes the initial concentrations of reactants and products into the equilibrium expression. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
67
The Reaction Quotient Note: Q = Keq only at equilibrium.
If Q < Keq then the forward reaction must occur to reach equilibrium. If Q > Keq then the reverse reaction must occur to reach equilibrium. Products are consumed, reactants are formed. Q decreases until it equals Keq. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

Le Châtelier’s Principle
“If a system at equilibrium is disturbed by a change in temperature, pressure, or the concentration of one of the components, the system will shift its equilibrium position so as to counteract the effect of the disturbance.” © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

84
The Haber Process This apparatus helps push the equilibrium to the right by removing the ammonia (NH3) from the system as a liquid. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
85
Effects of Volume and Pressure Changes
Le Châtelier’s principle predicts that if pressure is increased, the system will shift to counteract the increase. That is, the system shifts to remove gases and decrease pressure. An increase in pressure favors the direction that has fewer moles of gas. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
86
Effects of Volume and Pressure Changes
In a reaction with the same number of moles of gas in the products and reactants, changing the pressure has no effect on the equilibrium. No change will occur if we increase the total gas pressure by the addition of a gas that is not involved in the reaction. © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

Sample Integrative Exercise 15
At temperatures near 800oC, steam passed over hot coke (a form of carbon obtained from coal) reacts to form CO and H2: C(s) + H2O(g) D CO(g) + H2(g) The mixture of gases that results is an important industrial fuel called water gas. At 800oC the equilibrium constant for this reaction is Kp = What are the equilibrium partial pressures of H2O, CO, and H2 in the equilibrium mixture at this temperature if we start with solid carbon and mol of H2O in a 1.00-L vessel? b) What is the minimum amount of carbon required to achieve equilibrium under these conditions? © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.

c) What is the total pressure in the vessel at equilibrium? d) At 25oC the value of Keq for this reaction is 1.7 x Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? e) To produce the maximum amount of CO and H2 at equilibrium, should the pressure of the system be increased or decreased? © 2009, Prentice-Hall, Inc.
