What is the effect of temperature on K(equilibrium constant)?

For this question we need to consider the equation: ΔStotal = ΔSsystem - ΔH/T For and exothermic reaction, - ΔH/T is positive. Therefore, as T increases - ΔH/T becomes more negative, ΔStotal becomes less pos...

What is the relationship between K and ΔS total?

ΔStotal=RlnK This equation means that if ΔStotal is large and positive then K is large (much greater than 1) and the position of equilibrium is well to the right (due to the equation ΔStotal = ΔSsystem - ΔH/...

What is Le Chatelier's principle?

This is an quilibirum law tthat can be aplied to closed systems at dynamic equilibirum. Closed means that nothing can enter, nor leave the chemical system and dynamic equilibrium means that the rate of the f...

What is Le Chatelier's Principle?

The principle states that, if any system in dynamic equilibrium is subjected to a change, a process will act to minimise the change to restore equilibrium. These changes could be in concentrations, pressure ...

How do you calculate the equilibrium constant, Kc, of a reaction?

Given a reaction in the form: aA + bB ⇄ cC + dD where A and B are reactants, C and D are products and a, b, c and d are stoichiometric coefficients (relative number of moles of each molecule). T he equilibri...
