  1. Chemical equilibrium L.O.: Use Kc (the equilibrium constant ) to work out the composition of an equilibrium mixture.

  2. 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 Kcis known as the Equilibrium Constant

  3. 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 Kcis known as the Equilibrium Constant VALUE OF Kc AFFECTEDby a change of temperature NOTAFFECTEDby a change in concentration of reactants or products a change of pressure adding a catalyst

  4. 2A(g) + B(g) 2C (g) At equilibrium there were found to be 3 × 10-3 mol of A, 2 × 10-3 mol of B and 6.2 × 10-3 mol of C with a total volume of 2 dm3. Calculate Kc

  5. CALCULATIONS INVOLVING Kc Example 2 Consider the equilibrium P + 2Q R + S (all species are aqueous) One mole of P and one mole of Q are mixed. Once equilibrium has been achieved 0.6 moles of P are present. How many moles of Q, R and S are present at equilibrium ? P + 2Q R + S Initial moles 1 1 0 0 At equilibrium 0·6 0·2 0·4 0·4 (0·4 reacted) (2 x 0·4 reacted) (get 1 R and 1 S for every P that reacts) 1- 0·6 remain 1- 0·8 remain Explanation • if 0.6 mol of P remain of the original 1 mol, 0.4 mol have reacted • the equation states that 2 moles of Q react with every 1 mol of P • this means that 0.8 (2 x 0.4) mol of Q have reacted, leaving 0.2 mol • one mol of R and S are produced from every mol of P that reacts • this means 0.4 mol of R and 0.4 mol of S are present at equilibrium
