1. Briefly explain the following: a. Chemical equilibrium- Chemical equilibrium is the state of a reaction when the concentrations of the reactants and products are no longer changing and remain constant. The forward reaction proceeds at the same rate as the reverse reactions making them equal. This type of equilibrium is also named dynamic equilibrium or a dynamic process. When a reaction has reached its chemical equilibrium‚ the constant K value will remain constant unless the temperature changes

Lab O6 – Equilibrium Lab Application Purpose: An introduction to the qualitative aspects of chemical equilibrium. Starting with a reaction at equilibrium‚ one will change the concentration of various ions present in the equilibrium‚ and record the states of the changing equilibrium through observation. Theory: Equilibrium- the point at which a solution has become perfectly saturated; when their forward and reverse reaction rates are equal Concentration- a measurement of how much solute

Stephany Matos Chem Lab: Chemical Equilibrium Lab 52 Synopsis Iron (III) ions react with thiocyanate ions (SCN-) to form iron (III) thiocyanate‚ FeSCN2+. It is represented in the equation below: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN- (aq) FeSCN2+ (aq) Therefor the equilibrium constant for this reaction is: KC = [FeSCN2+]/([Fe3+]•[SCN-] For this experiment we were able to determine the equilibrium constant KC for this reaction. First we prepared five different mixtures with known initial concentrations of

Temperature and Equilibrium Virtual Lab Change is influenced by many different factors in many different situations. If you imagine the 400‚000 gallons of water in a stream at the top of a hill‚ you can picture that they will flow down the hill in order to reach equilibrium. But what if the temperature outside is -40 degrees Fahrenheit? How might this change the movement of the water molecules down the hill? This virtual lab will allow you to explore how temperature changes affect two linked

Chemical Equilibrium Lab Report Aim: The aim of the lab “Chemical Equilibrium” is to observe the effects of changes in concentrations of products and reactants on the position of the equilibrium of given chemical reactions. Background Information: We are going to use our knowledge of the Le Chatelier’s principle in order to observe this experiment. The principle states that the equilibrium will shift in the direction that will minimize the effects of the change. This lab consists of two

Chemical equilibrium is the point at which the concentrations of reactants and products do not change with time. It would appear as if the reaction has stopped‚ but in fact‚ the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal‚ causing the reactants and products to be created at the same rate. This can be expressed mathematically in the form of the equilibrium constant. The following is the general equation for a reversible chemical reaction: aA+bB →cC+dD
