4A (g) + 3B (g) <---> 5C (g)
Initially, 10 mol A and 15 mol B are put in a 5L flask. What are the initial concentrations of A, B, and C?
2 M, 3 M, 0 M.
When is Keq reactant favoured?
When it is less than 1/1000!
What does the change from initial to final concentration represent?
The amount of reactant or product that reacts as we go to equilibrium.
4A (g) + 2B (g) <---> 3C (g) What is the equilibrium expression?
Keq = [C]3
-------------
[A]4 [B]2
P2 + 3H2 <---> 2PH3
Initially, 4 mol P2 and 8 mol H2 are put in a 2L flask. Which way will the reaction run?
To the right!
Initially we have omly reactants, so it will proceed to the right until we reach equilibrium.
List 4 characteristics of chemical equilibrium!
Must be a closed system, must be reversible, must have some of all species present at equilibrium, must involve a chemical change!
3.5A (g) + 4B (aq) + C(l) <---> 8D (s) + 1.5E (s) + 6F (l)
What is the equilibrium expression?
Keq = 1
-----------
[A]3.5 [B]4
H2 + F2 <---> 2HF
Initially, 10 mol H2 and 6 mol F2 are in a 2L flask. At equilibrium, 5 mol HF are present. Draw and fill in the ICE diagram on the board.
H2 + F2 <---> 2HF
I 5M 3M 0
C -x -x +2x
E 5-x 3-x 2.5M so x = 1.25M
3.75M 1.75M 2.5M
Keq = (2.5)2
------------- = 0.9524

Does the equilibrium constant for the reaction
Br2(l) <===> Br2(g)
increase or decrease as temperature increases?
Increases!
As the temperature increases more of the liquid bromine (reactant) becomes a gas, hence increasing the product side.
N2 + 3H2 <---> 2NH3
Initially, 12 mol NH3 are put in a 2L flask. At equilibrium, the concentration of N2 is 1 M. What is the Keq?
N2 + 3H2 <---> 2NH3
I 0 0 6M
C +x +3X -2x
E 1M so x = 1
