A more appropriate definition of K (for the same chemical reaction discussed previously) is
With this definition, each concentration term is divided by the units of molarity, M, so K is then dimensionless.

A more appropriate definition of K (for the same chemical reaction discussed previously) is
With this definition, each concentration term is divided by the units of molarity, M, so K is then dimensionless. Because it is tedious to write the above equation, most people simply write
to save writing time.

Heterogeneous Equilibria A reaction often involves reactants that are not
present in the same phase – this leads to a heterogeneous equilibrium.

The “concentration” of any pure solid is the ratio of the total number of moles present in the solid, divided by the volume of the solid.

The “concentration” of any pure solid is the ratio of the total number of moles present in the solid, divided by the volume of the solid. If part of the solid is removed, the number of moles of solid will decrease – but so will it volume.

51
Hence Kc = [CO2]
52
Hence Kc = [CO2]
Notice that terms involving pure solids do not appear in the final equilibrium constant expression.
53
Hence Kc = [CO2]
Notice that terms involving pure solids do not appear in the final equilibrium constant expression. This result generalizes to all chemical reactions.
54
Hence Kc = [CO2]
Notice that terms involving pure solids do not appear in the final equilibrium constant expression. This result generalizes to all chemical reactions.
The corresponding expression for Kp for the decomposition of CaCO3 is:
Kp = 2COp
55
The same concentration of CO2 exists in both containers (provided the temperature is the same), even though the amounts of CaO and CaCO3 are different.
