Chemical Equilibrium
Equilibrium is a BALANCE between two opposing forces or processes
What does it take for two people to be in equilibrium on a teater totter?
When playin tug o’ war?
So, when does chemical equilibrium happen?
![Page 3: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Chemical Equilibrium When a reaction occurs until the
concentrations of products and reactants no longer changes, the reaction is said to have reached equilibrium.
Does this mean that the reaction has stopped completely?
NO…it simply means that the RATE at which product is being produced and the reactants are being reformed is equal.
Does this mean that the NUMBER of products and reactants is equal? NO!
![Page 4: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A Practical Example Imagine 5 students inside the
classroom and 25 students in the hallway.
If 2 students leave the classroom through one door which 2 students from the hallway enter the classroom, does the number of individuals in or out of the room change?
NO…The rate of entering is the same as the rate of leaving.
This is equilibrium…WITHOUT having equal numbers of students in and out
![Page 5: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Equal movement in both directionsmeans the rate is equal; therefore, equilibrium is met
![Page 6: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A chemical example Let’s look at a situation where
chemical equilibrium is met… When preparing a saturated solution
of sodium chloride, equilibrium is met and can be written as follows:
NaCl (s) <--> Na+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
Notice that the arrow is bidirectional This MUST be a closed system…no
more reactants or products are added from an outside source
![Page 7: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Relative Concentration There is NO WAY you can tell what the
concentrations of any of the products or reactants are by just looking at the equation; however, there is a ratio that scientists were able to come up with after much study:
The law of chemical equilibrium Keq = [products] / [reactants] Remember that the [brackets] mean
“concentration of” whatever is inside
![Page 8: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Keq
The calculation of Keq isn’t quite that simple, but conceptually it is.
For the reversible equation aA + bB --> xX + yY With the lower case letters being
the number of moles Keq is calculated: [X]x[Y]y / [A]a[B]b
![Page 9: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Keq
Try writing out the formula for Keq for the following reaction:
4 NO(g) + 6 H2O(g) <--> 4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g)
[NH3]4[O2]5 / [NO]4[H2O]6 = Keq
Practice: Try a few problems from your teacher Set up the equilibrium constants
(Keq’s) for these equations
![Page 10: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Practice Problems:
1. 2 NO2 (g) <--> N2O4 (g)
2. N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) <--> 2 NH3 (g)
3. 2 NO (g) +2 H2 (g) <--> N2 (g) + 2 H2O (g)
![Page 11: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
In the Lab
Calculating the Keq in the lab involves writing the correct formula for Keq, substituting in the measured concentrations
H2 + I2 --> 2 HI
[H2]= .0056 M
[I2]= .00059 M [HI]= .0127 M
![Page 12: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Keq = [HI]2 / [H2][I2]
Keq = (.0127)2 / (.0056)(.00059)
Keq = 48.8
If you measured different concentrations in subsequent lab trials, calculate Keq and then average all of the Keq values.

The Winds of CHANGE
We’ve discussed that equilibrium can exist only under conditions of constant temperature, pressure, volume, and concentration.
Henri LeChatelier examined what occurs when these factors do not remain constant
If one of these factors change, it is said to put “stress” on the reaction
![Page 15: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
LeChatelier’s Principle
When a stress is placed on a system in equilibrium, the system will adjust to remove the stress and to restore equilibrium in the system
1. Changes in Concentration This principle allows us to predict
the direction in which the equilibrium will shift when one or more of the concentrations of the products or reactants is altered.
![Page 16: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Predicting Direction
You can use LeChatelier’s Principle to predict the direction of the “teeter” or “totter”
Which direction will the reaction move (toward the reactants or toward the products) in order to reestablish equilibrium?
Let’s Practice!
![Page 17: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Changes in Concentration CO(g) + 2H2 (g) <--> CH3OH (g)
What direction does the rxn shift if… More CO is added? Methanol is increased? Methanol is removed? Hydrogen gas source is reduced?
![Page 18: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
LeChatelier’s and Pressure 2. The pressure of a system is directly
proportional to the number of gas molecules present…
So the only way to reduce the pressure is to reduce the total number of molecules in the system
Increasing pressure on a gaseous system causes the equilibrium to shift to the side with the fewest number of molecules
So, if the opposite is true and pressure is decreased, then the eq shifts to the side with the greatest number of molecules
![Page 19: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Try this
The following rxn has come to equilibrium in a container:
N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) <--> 2 NH3 (g)
In which direction will the rxn shift if the pressure on the system above decreases?
Left Why? Should the pressure on the above
system be increased or decreased to produce more ammonia? Why?
![Page 20: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Volume and LeChatelier’s 3. When the volume of a rxn is
reduced, the molecules are crowded together.
Decreasing the number of molecules can decrease the stress.
When the volume of a rxn involving gases decreases, the eq shifts to the side with the fewest number of molecules. (when the gas rxn volume increases, the eq shifts to the side with the greatest number of molecules.)
![Page 21: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Try these:
Will the reaction shift toward the reactants (left) or the products (right) side if the VOLUME IS DECREASED:
PCl5 (g) <--> PCl3 (g) + Cl2 (g)
Left N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) <--> 2NH3 (g)
Right 2CO (g) + O2 (g) <--> 2CO2 (g)
Right
![Page 22: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Temperature and LeChatelier’s
4. Keq is temperature, so heating or cooling the reaction will result in shifting the eq to the left or right depending on whether the rxn is endothermic or exothermic.
Exothermic: Increasing the temperature of an
exothermic rxn Reactants <--> products + heat
energyis like increasing a product, so the shift will be to the left
Decreasing will have the opposite effect
![Page 23: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
In an endothermic reaction however, increasing the temperature would be like increasing a reactant and would force the shift to the right
Reactants + heat energy <--> products
![Page 24: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Ksp When an ionic solid is placed in water,
an equilibrium is established between the ions in the saturated solution and the excess solid phase.
Ex. AgCl(s) <--> Ag+
(aq) + Cl-(aq) or Ag3PO4 (s) <--> 3Ag+
(aq) + PO4-3
(aq)
For each of these, we could write the Keq expressions. This is called the Ksp
or solubility product Do NOT include the solid (in Ksp or in
Keq) Write the Ksp for the above equations:
![Page 25: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
[Cl-][Ag+] = Ksp
And for the second reaction, [Ag+]3[PO4
-3] = Ksp
What does Ksp tell us?
The larger the Ksp, the more soluble a salt
is in water.
![Page 26: Chemical Equilibrium Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007 Chemistry.2 Midland High School Mrs. Daniels April 2007.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f145503460f94c295bd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
When doesn’t equilibrium occur? All of the reactions we’ve discussed
have been in EQUILIBRIUM, so do all reactions reach equilibrium?
What types of rxns don’t? Strong acid ionization, precipitations,
formation of a gas from an aqueous solution, and the formation of water as a product of the reaction
Why don’t these types of rxns reach eq?
