I Hope You all like it very much. I wish it is beneficial for all of you and you can get enough knowledge from it. Clear and appropriate objectives, in terms of what the audience ought to feel, think, and do as a result of seeing the presentation. Objectives are realistic – and may be intermediate parts of a wider plan.
2. Equilibrium
Equilibrium is a state in which there are
no observable changes as time goes by.
Chemical equilibrium is achieved when:
1.) the rates of the forward and reverse
reactions are equal and
2.) the concentrations of the reactants
and products remain constant
3. Equilibrium
• There are two types of equilibrium:
Physical and Chemical.
– Physical Equilibrium
• H20 (l) ↔ H20 (g)
– Chemical Equilibrium
• N2O4 (g) ↔ 2NO2
7. Law of Mass Action
• Law of Mass Action- For a reversible reaction
at equilibrium and constant temperature, a
certain ratio of reactant and product
concentrations has a constant value (K).
• The Equilibrium Constant (K)- A number equal
to the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of
products to the equilibrium concentrations of
reactants each raised to the power of its
stoichiometric coefficient.
8. Law of Mass Action
• For the general reaction:
K =
[C]c
[D]d
[A]a
[B]b
aA (g) + bB (g) cC (g) + dD (g)
10. Chemical Equilibrium
• Chemical equilibrium is defined by K.
• The magnitude of K will tell us if the
equilibrium reaction favors the reactants or
the products.
• If K » 1……..favors products
• If K « 1……..favors reactants
11. Equilibrium Constant Expressions
• Equilibrium constants can be expressed
using Kc or Kp.
• Kc uses the concentration of reactants and
products to calculate the eq. constant.
• Kp uses the pressure of the gaseous
reactants and products to calculate the eq.
constant.
13. Homogeneous Equilibrium
• Homogeneous Equilibrium- applies to
reactions in which all reacting species are
in the same phase.
N2O4 (g) ↔ 2NO2 (g)
Kp =

18. Equilibrium Constant Expressions
• Relationship between Kc and Kp
Kp = Kc(RT)∆n
∆n = moles of gaseous products – moles of gaseous reactants
= (c + d) – (a + b)
19. Equilibrium Constant Calculations
The equilibrium concentrations for the reaction between carbon monoxide and
molecular chlorine to form COCl2 (g) at 740C are [CO] = 0.012 M, [Cl2] =
0.054 M, and [COCl2] = 0.14 M. Calculate the equilibrium constants Kc and
Kp.

Kc =

Kp = Kc(RT)∆n
∆n = 1 – 2 = -1 R = 0.0821 T = 273 + 74 = 347 K
Kp = 220 x (0.0821 x 347)-1
= 7.7
20. Equilibrium Constant Calculations
• The equilibrium constant Kp for the reaction is 158 at
1000K. What is the equilibrium pressure of O2 if the PNO
= 0.400 atm and PNO = 0.270 atm?

22. Heterogeneous Equilibrium
• Heterogeneous Equilibrium- results from
a reversible reaction involving reactants
and products that are in different phases.
• Can include liquids, gases and solids as
either reactants or products.
• Equilibrium expression is the same as that
for a homogeneous equilibrium.
• Omit pure liquids and solids from the
equilibrium constant expressions.
23. Heterogeneous Equilibrium Constant
CaCO3 (s) CaO (s) + CO2 (g)
[CaCO3] = constant
[CaO] = constant
Kp = PCO2
The concentration of solids and pure liquids are not
included in the expression for the equilibrium constant.
27. Equilibrium Constant Calculations
Consider the following equilibrium at 295 K:
The partial pressure of each gas is 0.265 atm. Calculate Kp
and Kc for the reaction.
NH4HS (s) NH3 (g) + H2S (g)
Kp = PNH3
H2SP = 0.265 x 0.265 = 0.0702
Kp = Kc(RT)∆n
Kc = Kp(RT)-∆n ∆n = 2 – 0 = 2 T = 295 K
Kc = 0.0702 x (0.0821 x 295)-2
= 1.20 x 10-4

31. Writing Equilibrium Constant Expressions
• The concentrations of the reacting species in the condensed phase are
expressed in M. In the gaseous phase, the concentrations can be expressed in
M or in atm.
• The concentrations of pure solids, pure liquids and solvents do not appear in
the equilibrium constant expressions.
• The equilibrium constant is a dimensionless quantity.
• In quoting a value for the equilibrium constant, you must specify the balanced
equation and the temperature.
• If a reaction can be expressed as a sum of two or more reactions, the
equilibrium constant for the overall reaction is given by the product of the
equilibrium constants of the individual reactions.

32. What does the Equilibrium Constant tell
us?
• We can:
– Predict the direction in which a reaction
mixture will proceed to reach equilibrium
– Calculate the concentration of reactants and
products once equilibrium has been reached
33. Predicting the Direction of a Reaction
• The Kc for hydrogen iodide in the following equation is
53.4 at 430ºC. Suppose we add 0.243 mol H2, 0.146 mol
I2 and 1.98 mol HI to a 1.00L container at 430ºC. Will
there be a net reaction to form more H2 and I2 or HI?
H2 (g) + I2 (g) → 2HI (g)
[HI]0

[H2]0 [I2]0
Kc =

[0.243] [0.146]
Kc = Kc = 111
34. Reaction Quotient
The reaction quotient (Qc) is calculated by substituting the
initial concentrations of the reactants and products into
the equilibrium constant (Kc) expression.
IF
• Qc > Kc system proceeds from right to left to
reach equilibrium
• Qc = Kc the system is at equilibrium
• Qc < Kc system proceeds from left to right to
reach equilibrium
38. Calculating Equilibrium Concentrations
• If we know the equilibrium constant for a
reaction and the initial concentrations, we can
calculate the reactant concentrations at
equilibrium.

or 0.00844 M
42. Calculating Equilibrium Concentrations
• Express the equilibrium concentrations of all
species in terms of the initial concentrations and
a single unknown x, which represents the
change in concentration.
• Write the equilibrium constant expression in
terms of the equilibrium concentrations.
Knowing the value of the equilibrium constant,
solve for x.

concentrations of all species.

balance between forward and reverse
reactions.
• Changes in the following will alter the
direction of a reaction:
– Concentration
– Pressure
– Volume
– Temperature
48. Le Châtlier’s Principle
• Le Châtlier’s Principle- if an external
stress is applied to a system at
equilibrium, the system adjusts in such a
way that the stress is partially offset as the
system reaches a new equilibrium
position.
• Stress???
49. Changes in Concentration
• Increase in concentration of reactants

concern gases.
• Concentration of gases are greatly
affected by pressure changes and volume
changes according to the ideal gas law.
PV = nRT
P = (n/V)RT
55. Changes in Pressure and Volume

endothermic reaction and a temperature
decrease favors and exothermic reaction.

Increase T K decreases K increases
Decrease T K increases K decreases
59. Changes in Temperature
Consider: N2O4(g) ↔ 2NO2(g)
The forward reaction absorbs heat; endothermic
heat + N2O4(g) ↔ 2NO2(g)
So the reverse reaction releases heat; exothermic
2NO2(g) ↔ N2O4(g) + heat
Changes in temperature??
60. Effect of a catalyst
• How would the presence of a catalyst
affect the equilibrium position of a
reaction?
Notas do Editor
In equilibrium, the concentration on reactants and products remains constant. Constant transfer.
Although it seems like there are no more reactions taking place, r to p and p to r formation is continuously occurring.
There are several types of equilibrium reactions that can occur and we will discuss all of them.
In this chapter we will be looking at the types of equilibrium reactions, the equilibrium constant and its relationship to the rate constant and factors that can disrupt a system at equilibrium.
Most reactions are reversible. As soon as p forms, r begins to reform. R then forms more p.
Physical- equilibrium between two phases of the same substance. Changes that occur are physical.
Chemical- equilibrium chemists are more interested in this b/c the progress of the reaction can be easily monitored.
Liquid water in equilibrium with its vapor. The number of water molecules leaving the liquid is equivalent to those returning to the liquid.
Reversible reaction between nitrogen dioxide and dinitrogen tetroxide forms an orange colored product. Nit. Di. Is colorless and dinit. Tet. Is brown.
Brown forms immediately, followed by the color lightnening due to reverse reaction occurring.
a.) initially only NO2 b.) Initially only N2O4 c.) Mixture
Equilibrium always occurs and at app. The same time.
Greater than 1 = any number greater than 10
Less than 1 = any number less than 0.1
R = 0.0821 L x atm/K x mol
Liquids and solids are “1” in these problems because they are a constant. Molar concentration is density. Density never changes regardless of quantity present.
Partial pressure of CO2 does not change regardless of the changes in concentration of solids. Temp. has to stay the same.
Quote the balanced equation, temperature given from the calculation. This is because the different ways to balance the equation will result in different equilibrium values.
