Chapter 18: Chemical Equilibria
Irreversible reactions: The reactants combine to form products and the reaction stops when the limiting reagent has been completely used up.“Only” the forward reaction occurs.
Reversible reactions:Both the forward and the reverse reaction occur to a significant degree.
Au2O3 (s) + 2 Fe (s) 2 Au (s) + Fe2O3 (s)Ex:
3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) 2 NH3 (g)
3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) 2 NH3 (g)
Forward:
Reverse:
Equilibrium: A reaction is at equilibrium when
Rate forward rxn = Rate reverse rxn
3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) ⇋ 2 NH3 (g)

Heterogeneous equilibria• Occurs when the reactants and products are in more than one state
• Because the molar concentration of solids and liquids do not change, SOLIDS AND LIQUIDS NEVER appear in equilibrium constant calculations (they have a concentration value of 1).
Ex: BaCl2 (s) ⇋ Ba2+ (aq) + 2 Cl- (aq)
22eq ]][Cl[BaK
• Since this particular type of equilibrium involves the solubility of the product, it is given a special designation:
Ksp = solubility product constant

What are the equilibrium constants for the following:
1. C10H8 (s) ⇋ C10H8 (g)
2. CaCO3 (s) ⇋ CaO (s) + CO2 (g)
3. C (s) + H2O (g) ⇋ CO (g) + H2 (g)
4. FeO (s) + CO (g) ⇋ Fe (s) + CO2 (g)
Keq = [C10H8]
Keq = [CO2]Keq =

The equilibrium constant for the reaction below at 700K is 0.44. What is the concentration of the carbon dioxide if [H2O] = 0.16 M, [CO] = 0.15 M and [H2] = 0.14 M?
H2O(g) + CO(g) H⇋ 2(g) + CO2(g)

Molar solubility: the number of moles of the solute per liter in a saturated solution
Ex 1: What is the molar solubility of lead(II) iodide if its Ksp is 8.7 x 10–9 ? PbI2(s) Pb2+ + 2 I–
x 2xx = the molar solubility
Ksp = [Pb2+][I–]2
8.7 x 10–9 = [x][2x]2
8.7 x 10–9 = 4x3
x = 1.3 x 10–3 M
Ex 2: What is the molar solubility of PbI2 if 0.2 M KI is added?
[I–] = 0.2 M 8.7 x 10–9 = [x][0.2]2 x = 2.2 x 10–7 M
Ex 3: What is the Ksp of Pb3(PO4)2 if it has a molar solubility of 1.5 x 10-9 M?
1) Write out reaction equation: Pb3(PO4)2 3 Pb2+ + 2 PO43-
3x 2x
2) Write out Ksp expression: Ksp = [Pb2+]3 [PO43-]2
Ksp = (3x)3 (2x)2
Ksp = (27x3)(4x2)
Ksp = 108x5 x = 1.5 x 10-9
Ksp = (108)(1.5 x 10-9 )5
Ksp = 8.2 x 10-43
Le Chatelier’s Principle: When a stress is applied to an equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift to alleviate the stress.
Fe+3 (aq) + SCN-1 (aq) ⇋ FeSCN+2 (aq)
Colorless ⇋ Dark red
Initial color
Left shift = more reactants (color is lighter)
Right shift = more products (color is darker)
Other ways to cause a Le Châtelier Shift:
3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) + heat ⇋ 2 NH3 (g)
What kind of shift would you see if:
*Pressure increased?
[NH3] increased?
Heating temperature increased?
Right shift

*A gas–phase equilibrium will shift to the side of the reaction that takes up less space (smaller coefficient sum) when pressure is increased.
CH4 (g) + 2 Cl2 (g) ⇋ CCl4 (g) + 2 H2 (g) + heat
What kind of shift would you see if:
Pressure increased?
Heating temperature increased?
