jA + kB –> lC + mD
j, k, l, m are coeffecients
A
K= [C]^l * [D]^m / [A]^j * [B]^k

A
equilibrium lies in the middle
5
Q
How do you determine if a reaction is at equilibrium?
A
- Use the equilibrium constant formula and fill in the values
- Solve equation
- Compare answer to Keq value given
6
Q
If Q>Keq, reaction goes where?
A
to the right (NOT at equilibrium)
7
Q
If Q<Keq, reaction goes where?
A
to the left (NOT at equilibrium)
8
