Questions and Answers

What does a large value of the equilibrium constant Kc indicate about a reaction?

  • The reaction consumes most reactants. (correct)
  • The reaction goes to completion. (correct)
  • The reaction has equal amounts of reactants and products.
  • The reaction is at static equilibrium.
  • In a static equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products do not change over time.

    True

    What is dynamic equilibrium?

    Dynamic equilibrium is a state where the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, resulting in constant concentrations of reactants and products.

    Study Notes

    Reversible Reactions

    • Reactions where products can recombine to form reactants.
    • These reactions never complete.
    • Proceed in both directions: forward and reverse.

    Dynamic Equilibrium

    • Forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates but in opposite directions.
    • Equilibrium state means the overall reaction does not stop.
    • Achievable only in closed systems where no substances can enter or leave.
    • At equilibrium, the amount of reactants and products remains constant.
    • Physical properties like color, density remain constant.
    • Equilibrium state is attainable from either direction: starting with reactants or products.

    Equilibrium Constant

    • Indicates the extent of a reaction at equilibrium.
    • Large Kc: The reaction proceeds almost to completion, with mostly products remaining.
    • Small Kc: The reaction reaches equilibrium with little conversion of reactants to products.
    • Moderate Kc: Comparable amounts of reactants and products at equilibrium.

    Factors that Affect Equilibrium State

    • Concentration
    • Pressure
    • Temperature
