In this lesson on Calculations of Kc for Homogenous Equilibria, which is part of Unit 3 Area of Study 2 for VCE Chemistry, you will learn about:
- calculations involving equilibrium expressions and equilibrium constants (Kc only) for a closed homogeneous equilibrium system including dependence of value of equilibrium constant, and its units, on the equation used to represent the reaction and on the temperature
Equilibrium Expression (Keq)
A Crash Course on the equilibrium expression and how to write equilibrium equations for homogeneous reactions occurring in solution.
A clear in-depth explanation of the general equilibrium constant for homogeneous reactions occurring in solution, exploring phosgene as an example.
Equilibrium and Keq
An explanation of Equilibrium, and how to calculate for Keq with many example reactions. Also presenting a model of reactants and products to understand equilibrium with the transfer of water between two systems.
The Reaction Quotient (Q)
An exploration of the equilibrium constant in chemical equilibria and using the reaction quotient to determine which direction a reaction will proceed.
