| Term | Definition |
|---|
| Equilibrium | A state of dynamic balance between forward and reverse reactions that does not change with time. |
| Partial Pressure | The part of the total pressure in a gas mixture that can be attributed to a particular component. |
| Equilibrium Constant | K; this constant changes with temperature |
| Equilibrium Expression | The concentration of all the products multiplied together divided by all the reactants multiplied together. |
| Spontaneous Reaction | Occurs when K>1. |
| Nonspontaneous Reaction | Occurs when K<1. |
| Equilibrium (In terms of K) | Occurs when K=1. |
| Coefficient Rule | If the coefficients of a reaction are increased of decreased by a factor of n, then the K is raised to that power. |
| Reciprocal Rule | If you reverse a reaction, you reciprocate (invert) the K. |
| Multiple Equilibria Rule | when two or more reaction equations are added together, the equilibrium constant for the sum reaction is the product of the equilibrium constants of the added reactions. |
| When does Kp = Kc | When the change in gases is equal to 0. |
| What occurs when Q>K | The reaction proceeds in the reverse direction, generating reactants. |
| What occurs when Q<K | The reaction proceeds in the forward direction, generating products. |
| What occurs when Q=K | The reaction is at equilibrium. |
| Le Chatelier's Law | Whenever a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift to relieve that stress and reestablish equilibrium. |
| How does Josh Holat demonstrate gaseous equilibrium | When he farts during the middle of lecture notes. |
| What happens is a reactant's concentration is increased | The equilibrium shifts to the forward direction and makes more products until equilibrium is reestablished. |
| What is the theme song for gaseous equilibrium | ICE ICE Baby! |
| What are the parts of an ICE table | Initial, Change, Equilibrium |
| What is the ideal gas equation | PV=nRT |
| When is a system in equilibrium... | When the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. |
| Does K have units | NO!!!!!!!!! |
| Boyle's Law | Inverse Relationship P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ |
| Charle's Law | Direct Relationship V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ |
| Gay Lussac's Law | Direct Relationship P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ |
