- Equilibrium Constant - 1
2
Please READ pp. 439 – 440 Equilibrium constant (K eq ) is the value obtained from the mathematical combination of equilibrium concentrations using the equilibrium law expression. 2
3
For the general chemical reaction aA + bB cC + dD K eq = [C] c [D] d [A] a [B] b where A, B, C, and D are chemical entities in gas or aqueous phases a, b, c, and d are the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation, and K eq is the constant called the equilibrium constant 3
4
The molar concentration of the products are always multiplied by one another and written in the numerator, and the molar concentrations of the reactants are always multiplied by one another and written in the denominator. The coefficients in the balanced chemical equation are equal to the exponents of the equilibrium law expression The concentrations in the equilibrium law expression are the molar concentrations of the entities at equilibrium 4
5
(1) Ratio of products to reactants at a specific temperature 5
6
(2) If K eq is huge, then products are greatly favoured and the equilibrium lies to the right (Percent Reaction is above 50) 6
7
(3) If K eq is very small, then the reactants are greatly favoured and the equilibrium lies to the left. (Percent Reaction is below 50) 7
8
(4) If K eq is around 1, then the product and reactant concentrations are comparable. 8
