Exp. 20: Spectrophotometric Analysis: Determination of the Equilibrium
Constant for a Reaction
Exp. 20 - video (time: 41:13 minutes)

Many chemical reactions do not completely convert reactants to products. Stop somewhere between no rxn and complete rxn.
A + B C + D
some left some formed
reversible (both directions)
Chemical EquilibriumPreviously we have assumed that chemical reactions results in complete conversion of reactants to products:
A + B C + DNo A or B remaining or possibly an excess of A or B but not both and eventually reaction stops.

A + B C + D
A + B C + D

Chemical Equilibrium• Therefore, many reactions do not go to
completion but rather form a mixture of products and unreacted reactants, in a dynamic equilibrium.– A dynamic equilibrium consists of a forward reaction, in which
substances react to give products, and a reverse reaction, in which products react to give the original reactants.
– Chemical equilibrium is the state reached by a reaction mixture when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions have become equal.
5
Graphically we can represent this A + B C + D
The concentrations and reaction rate (less collisions, less component) of A and B decreases over time as the concentrations and reaction rate of C and D increases (more collisions, more component) over time until the rates are equal and the concentrations of each components reaches a constant. This occurs at what we call equilibrium -- Rf = Rr.
If the rates are equal, then there must be a relationship to show this.
3H2 + CO CH4 + H2O
3H2 + CO CH4 + H2O rate decreases over time
CH4 + H2O 3H2 + CO rate increases over time
Rf=Rr

For the reverse reaction we have,
C + D A + B Rr = kr [C][D]
We know at equil that Rf = Rr ;therefore, we can set these two expressions as equal
kf [A][B] = kr [C][D]
Rearrange to put constants on one side we get

If we assume these reactions are elementary rxns (based on collisions), we can write the rate laws directly from the reaction:
A + B C + D Rf = kf [A][B]

Constant divided by constant just call a new constant K. This ratio is given a special name and symbol called equilibrium constant K relating to the equilibrium condition at a certain temperature (temp dependent) for a particular reaction relating conc of each component. This is basically a comparison between forward and reverse reaction rates. At equilibrium, the ratio of conc of species must satisfy K.

The Equilibrium Constant• Every reversible system has its own “position of
equilibrium”- K- under any given set of conditions.
– The ratio of products produced to unreacted reactants for any given reversible reaction remains constant under constant conditions of pressure and temperature. If the system is disturbed, the system will shift and all the concentrations of the components will change until equilibrium is re-established which occurs when the ratio of the new concentrations equals "K". Different constant conc but ratio same as before.
– The numerical value of this ratio is called the equilibrium constant for the given reaction, K.
10
The Equilibrium Constant• The equilibrium-constant expression for a reaction is
obtained by multiplying the equil concentrations ( or partial pressures) of products, dividing by the equil concentrations (or partial pressures) of reactants, and raising each concentration to a power equal to its coefficient in the balanced chemical equation.

The molar concentration of a substance is denoted by writing its formula in square brackets for aq solutions. For gases can put Pa - atm. As long as use M or atm, K is unitless; liquids and solids = 1; setup same for all K’s (Ka, Kb, etc.)Temp dependent; any changes, ratio will still equal K when equil established

Calibration Curve
We basically force the [FeSCN2+] to equal the initial [SCN-] by using a 1:1000 ratio of SCN- to Fe3+
pg 139: 20.00 mL of 2.00 x 10-4 M KSCN 20.00 mL of 0.200 M Fe(NO3)3
Therefore, [SCN-]o diluted within rxn = [FeSCN2+]eq
for calibration only not actual K experiment
Calibration Curve
[SCN-]o = [FeSCN2+]eq within rxn (meaning taking into account dilution)

Determination of K-Obtain calibration curve from first three solutions (top of pg 139); this plot will allow you to determine the [FeSCN2+]eq for each of the three experimental mixtures.Mix solutions for exp 1 (pg 140), obtain absorbance from spec 20 at 460 nm, read absorbance off calibration curve for [FeSCN2+]eq; technically the x in K expression
Determination of KBottom table pg 140[Fe3+]eq = [Fe3+]o – x = [Fe3+]o – [FeSCN2+]eq
[SCN-]eq = [SCN-]o – x = [SCN-]o – [FeSCN2+]eq
