6 Questions
What defines chemical equilibrium?
When the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal
What is the Law of Mass Action?
The equilibrium constant expression is constant at a given temperature
Which factor does the equilibrium constant, Kc, depend on?
Stoichiometric coefficients of reactants and products
What does Kc represent in a chemical reaction at equilibrium?
Ratio of product concentrations to reactant concentrations
Can Kc change if the initial concentrations of reactants and products change?
No, it remains constant
What characterizes equilibrium in terms of reactant and product conversion?
Net conversion from reactants to products is equal to that from products to reactants
Learn about chemical equilibrium, where the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal, and concentrations of reactants and products remain constant. Understand the concept of dynamic equilibrium and the equilibrium constant.
