First, system reaches equilibrium
Chemical Equilibrium Introduction
1.) Equilibria govern diverse phenomena Protein folding, acid rain action on minerals to aqueous reactions
2.) Chemical equilibrium applies to reactions that can occur in both directions:
reactants are constantly forming products and vice-versa At the beginning of the reaction, the rate that the reactants are changing into the
products is higher than the rate that the products are changing into the reactants. When the net change of the products and reactants is zero the reaction has
reached equilibrium.
At equilibrium the amount of reactants and products are constant, but not necessarily equal
Then, system continually exchanges products and reactants, while maintaining equilibrium distribution.
Reactants Product
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium Constant
1.) The relative concentration of products and reactants at equilibrium is a constant.
2.) Equilibrium constant (K): For a general chemical reaction
Equilibrium constant:
Where:- small superscript letters are the stoichiometry coefficients- [A] concentration chemical species A relative to standard state

2.) Equilibrium constant (K): A reaction is favored when K > 1 K has no units, dimensionless
- Concentration of solutes should be expressed as moles per liter (M).- Concentrations of gases should be expressed in bars.
► express gas as Pgas, emphasize pressure instead of concentration► 1 bar = 105 Pa; 1 atm = 1.01325 bar
- Concentrations of pure solids, pure liquids and solvents are omitted► are unity► standard state is the pure liquid or solid

3.) Manipulating Equilibrium Constants Example:
Kw= 1.0 x 10-14
Given the reactions and equilibrium constants:
KNH3= 1.8 x 10-5
Find the equilibrium constant for the reaction:
Solution:
K1= Kw
K2=1/KNH3
K3=Kw*1/KNH3=5.6x10-10
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
1.) Equilibrium constant derived from the thermodynamics of a chemical reaction.
deals with the relationships and conversions between heat and other forms of energy
2.) Enthalpy H – is the heat absorbed or released when the reaction takes place under
constant applied pressure
H = Hproducts – Hreactants
Standard enthalpy change (Ho) – all reactants and products are in their standard state. Ho – negative heat released
- Exothermic- Solution gets hot
Ho – positive heat absorbed- Endothermic- Solution gets cold
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
3.) Entropy Measure of a substances “disorder” Greater disorder Greater Entropy
- Relative disorder: Gas > Liquid > solid
S = Sproducts – Sreactants
So – change in entropy when all species are in standard state.- positive
product more disorder- negative
product less disorder
So = +76.4 J/(K.mol) at 25oC
More disorder for aqueous ions than solid
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
3.) Entropy Increase in temperature results in an increase in Entropy (S)
Increase occurs for all products and reactants
Primarily concerned with S, which is only weakly temperature dependent- generally treat S and H as temperature independent
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
4.) Free Energy Systems at constant temperature and pressure have a tendency toward
lower enthalpy and higher entropy
Chemical reaction is favored if:- H is negative heat given offand- S is positive more disorder
Chemical reaction is not favored if:- H is positive and S is negative
Gibbs Free Energy (G): determines if a reaction is favored or not when both H and S are positive or negative- A reaction is favored if G is negative
where T is temperature (Kelvin)
Free energy: G = H -TS
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
4.) Free Energy Example:
Is the following reaction favored at 25oC?
Ho = -74.85 x 103 J/molSo = -130.4 J/K.mol
Free energy: G = H –TS = (-74.85x103 J/mol) – (298.15K)(-130.4 J/K.mol)
G = -35.97 kJ/mol G negative reaction favored
Favorable influence of enthalpy is greater than unfavorable influence of entropy
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
5.) Free Energy and Equilibrium Relate Equilibrium constant to the energetics (H & S) of a reaction Equilibrium constant depends on G:
where R (gas constant) = 8.314472 J/(K.mol) T = temperature in kelvins
The more negative G larger equilibrium constant Example:

Because K is very large, HCl is very soluble in water and nearly completely ionized
Chemical Equilibrium Equilibrium and Thermodynamics
5.) Free Energy and Equilibrium If Go is negative or K >1 the reaction is spontaneous
- Reaction occurs by just combining the reactants
If Go is positive or K < 1, the reaction is not spontaneous- Reaction requires external energy or process to proceed
Gas flows towards a vacuum.spontaneous
A vacuum does not naturally form.nonspontaneous
Chemical Equilibrium Le Châtelier’s Principal
1.) What Happens When a System at Equilibrium is Perturbed? Change concentration, temperature, pressure or add other chemicals
Equilibrium is re-established- Reaction accommodates the change in products, reactants, temperature,
pressure, etc.- Rates of forward and reverse reactions re-equilibrate
Chemical Equilibrium Le Châtelier’s Principal
1.) What Happens When a System at Equilibrium is Perturbed? Le Châtelier’s Principal:
- the direction in which the system proceeds back to equilibrium is such that the change is partially offset.
Consider this reaction:
At equilibrium:
Add excess CO(g):
To return to equilibrium (balance), some (not all) CO and H2 are converted to CH3OH
If all added CO was converted to CH3OH, then reaction would be unbalanced by the amount of product

Chemical Equilibrium Le Châtelier’s Principal
2.) Example:
Because Q > K, the reaction must go to the left to decrease numerator and increase denominator.
Continues until Q = K:
1. If the reaction is at equilibrium and products are added (or reactants removed), the reaction goes to the left
2. If the reaction is at equilibrium and reactants are added ( or products removed), the reaction goes to the right

4.) Thermodynamics vs. Kinetics Thermodynamics predicts if a reaction will occur
- determines the state at equilibrium
Thermodynamics does not determine the rate of a reaction
- Will the reaction occur instantly, in minutes, hours, days or years?
- While reaction is spontaneous, takes millions of years to occur

Chemical Equilibrium Solubility Product
1.) Equilibrium constant for the reaction which a solid salt dissolves to give its constituent ions in solution
Solid omitted from equilibrium constant because it is in a standard state

Chemical Equilibrium Solubility Product
1.) Saturated Solution – contains excess, undissolved solid
Solution contains all the solid capable of dissolving under the current conditions
Example:
Find [Cu2+] in a solution saturated with Cu4(OH)6(SO4) if [OH-] is fixed at 1.0x10-6M. Note that Cu4(OH)6(SO4) gives 1 mol of SO4
2- for 4 mol of Cu2+? 691032 .K sp
Chemical Equilibrium Solubility Product
2.) If an aqueous solution is left in contact with excess solid, the solid will dissolve until the condition of Ksp is satisfied
Amount of undissolved solid remains constant Excess solid is required to guarantee ion concentration is consistent with Ksp
3.) If ions are mixed together such that the concentrations exceed Ksp, the solid will precipitate.
4.) Solubility product only describes part of the solubility of a salt Only includes dissociated ions Ignores solubility of solid salt
Common ion effect – a salt will be less soluble if one of its constituent ions is already present in the solution.
Chemical Equilibrium
Decrease in the solubility of MgF2 by the addition of NaF
PbCl2 precipitate because the ion product is greater than Ksp.

Zn(OH)2 (s) Ksp = 3.0x10-16
Zn(OH)+ 1 = 2.5 x104
Zn(OH)3- 3 = 7.2x1015
Zn(OH)42- 4 = 2.8x1015
Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
1.) Protic Acids and Bases – transfer of H+ (proton) from one molecule to another
Hydronium ion (H3O+) – combination of H+ with water (H2O)
Acid – is a substance that increases the concentration of H3O+
Base – is a substance that decreases the concentration of H3O+
- base also causes an increase in the concentration of OH- in aqueous solutions
2.) Brønsted-Lowry – definition does not require the formation of H3O+
Extended to non-aqueous solutions or gas phase
Acid – proton donor
Base – proton acceptor

Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
3.) Salts – product of an acid-base reaction Any ionic solid Acid and base neutralize each other and form a salt Most salts with a single positive and negative charge dissociate completely
into ions in water
4.) Conjugate Acids and Bases
Products of acid-base reaction are also acids and bases
A conjugate acid and its base or a conjugate base and its acid in an aqueous system are related to each other by the gain or loss of H+
Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
5.) Autoprotolysis – acts as both an acid and base Extent of these reactions are very small

- H3O+ is the conjugate acid of water- OH- is the conjugate base of water- Kw is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of water
Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
6.) pH – negative logarithm of H+ concentration Ignores distinction between concentration and activities (discussed later)
A solution is acidic if [H+] > [OH-] A solution is basic if [H+] < [OH-]
An aqueous solution has a neutral pH if [H+]=[OH-]- This occurs when [H+] = [OH-] = 10-7M or pH = 7

Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
7.) Strengths of Acids and Bases Depends on whether the compound react nearly completely or partially to
produce H+ or OH-
strong acid or base completely dissociate in aqueous solution- equilibrium constants are large- everything else termed weak
Strong no undissociated HCl or KOH
Chemical Equilibrium Acids and Bases
7.) Strengths of Acids and Bases
weak acids react with water by donating a proton- only partially dissociated in water- equilibrium constants are called Ka – acid dissociation constant- Ka is small
weak bases react with water by removing a proton- only partially dissociated in water- equilibrium constants are called Kb – base dissociation constant- Kb is small
