What is a homogenous equilibrium
equilibrium where all equilibrium species have the same state
What is a heterogenous equilibrium
equilibrium where all equilibrium species have different states or phases
how to calculate mole fraction of a gas
moles of that gas/ total gaseuous moles
acronym for KC calculation
RICE
ratio, initial, change, end
how to calculate partial pressure
mole fraction x total pressure
What does Kp include
gases ONLY
What do different values of Kc indicate
K=1 is equilibrium
K>1 towards products
K<1 towards reactants
How does a catalyst effect an equilibrium
no effect on the position of equilibrium
speeds up the rate equilibrium is reached
speeds up rate of forwards and reverse reaction equally
effect of changing pressure or concentration on the value of K
no effect
effect of inc temperature on an exothermic value of K in equilibrium
value of K decreases with increasing temperature
raising temp decreases equilibrium yield
effect of changing temperature on an endothermic value of K in equilibrium
value of K increases with increasing temperature
raising temp inc equilibrium yield of products
how to find units for Kc
sub in units to Kc expression and cancel common units
