Mod 12 Equilibrium

What are the two factors to look for when determining if the reaction is at equilibrium?

• Forward reaction rate is faster than the reverse and concentrations are equal
• Forward and reverse reaction rates are equal and concentration is constant
• Forward and revers reaction rates are equal and concentration is equal
• Forward reaction rate is faster than the reverse and concentration is equal

For the reaction...

SO₂ + O₂ ⇌ SO₃

If the concentration of SO₂ is increased, the equilibrium of the reaction will shift ___________.

• left

• right

• left and right

• neither left nor right

2SO₂(g)+O₂(g)⇌2SO₃(g)
Removing O₂(g) will

• shift equilibrium right
• shift equilibrium left
• increase pressure
• have no change

H₂(g)+Cl₂(g)⇌2HCl(g)

Removing Cl₂(g) will

• shift equilibrium right

• shift equilibrium left

• increase pressure

• have no change

H₂(g)+Cl₂(g)⇌2HCl(g)

The forward reaction is exothermic. What will happen to the equilibrium if the temperature is increased?

• equilibrium shifts right

• equilibrium shifts left

• You cannot predict the effect

• no change

Changes in pressure will only affect substances that are in the __________ state.

• gaseous
• liquid
• solid
• plasma

For the reaction...

N_{2 (g)} + 3 H_2(g) ⇌ 2 NH_{3 (g)}

If the pressure in the system is increased, which substance(s) will increase in concentration?

• N₂

• H₂

• N₂ and H₂

• NH₃

What is the effect of increasing the pressure on the following equilibrium: 2NO(g) + O₂ (g) ⇌2NO₂(g)?

• The yield of NO₂ increases

• The yield of NO₂ decreases

• The reaction is slower

• The concentration of O₂ increases.

For the reaction...
N₂  +  O₂  <=>  2NO:  Δ H = +182 kJ mol^-1.
If the temperature is increased the equilibrium position will shift _______.

• to the left
• to the right
• to the left and right
• neither left nor right

What is the K_c expression for this reaction?
   2 NO_(g)  +  O_2(g) ⇌  2 NO_2(g)

• K_c = [NO₂]² / [NO]² [O₂]
• K_c =  [NO]² [O₂] / [NO₂]²
• K_c = [NO]² [O₂] [NO₂]²
• K_c = [NO₂]² / [NO]² +  [O₂]
