Answer |
| Can equilibium constant (K eq) ever be negative? |
no |
| K(eq) < 1 means... |
reaction favors the reactants |
| K(eq) > 1 means... |
reaction favors the products |
| lowering temp favors... |
exothermic reactions |
| raising temp favors... |
endothermic reactions |
| Q > K(eq) means... |
the reacton procedes in the reverse |
| Q < K(eq) means... |
the reaction procedes forward |
| Exothermic reactions are located.... and ∆H is... |
on the product side; negative |
| Endothermic reactions are located... and ∆H is ... |
on the reactants side; positive |
| Adding a catalyst to a reaction that is already at equilibrium will have what kind of effect... |
adding a ( ) increases the rate of both the forward and reverse reactions equally, hoewever the equilibrium amounts will not change |
| In a reaction at equlibrium, if the volume is reduced, therefore increasing the pressure, a net reaction occurs favoring... |
the side with the smaller total number of moles |
| In a reaction at equlibrium, if the volume is expanded, therefore decreasing the pressure, the net reaction occurs favoring... |
the side with the greater total number of moles |
| What will happen to a reaction's equilibrium contsant K(eq) if the temp changes? |
The value of K(eq) is constant at a given temp therefore if the temp changes so does the K(eq) |
