Dynamic Equilibrium
Dynamic equilibrium occurs
when the forward rate and
the reverse rate of the
reaction are equal.
Concentrations (or partial
pressures) no longer
change over time.
Rate = kf[A]

Rate = kr[B]
At equilibrium,

Relationship Between KP
and Kc
In general, Kc and KP are related by:
KP = Kc (RT)n
n is diff. betw. moles of gas-phase products

In the previous example,
n = 1 - 2 = -1
KP = Kc(RT)-1
OR Kc = KP(RT)

Calculations in
Equilibrium
Using an ICE table:
Calculate Kc or KP given certain initial and
equilibrium concentrations or pressures.
Calculate equilibrium concentrations or
pressures given Kc or KP and the initial
concentrations or pressures.
24
Calculations in
Equilibrium
Write an ICE chart beneath the chemical reaction with
rows for the initial (I), change (C), and equilibrium (E)
concentrations or pressures.
Tabulate all known values of concentrations or pressures.
If values of I and E are known for a given species,
calculate C for that species.
If values of E are unknown for any species, use +/- x for
the value of C.
Use the stoichiometry of the reaction to calculate values
of C (possibly in terms of x) for all other species.
Calculate values of E (possibly in terms of x) for all
species and use them in the Kc or KP equilibrium
expression.

Quadratic equation
Using the physical root, x = 0.0187, we find
that:
PNO = 0.050 + 2(0.0187) = 0.087 bar
PN2 = 2.00 - 0.0187 = 1.98 bar
PO2 = 8.00 - 0.0187 = 7.98 bar

Le Chteliers
Principle
If a system at chemical equilibrium is disturbed by a
sudden change in temperature, pressure, or
composition, the system will re-establish equilibrium
in a way that will counteract the effects of the
disturbance.
