Chemical and Ionic Equilibrium Important Points To Remember

 ❤Chemical and Ionic EquilibriumЁЯдН

ЁЯеАEquilibrium

⚡Equilibrium is the state of a process in which the properties like temperature, pressure, and concentration Etc. of the system do not show any change with passage of time.


➖In all processes which attain equilibrium, two opposing processes are involved.

➖Equilibrium is attained when the rates of the two opposing processes become equal. 

➖If the opposing processes involve only physical changes, the equilibrium is called Physical Equilibrium. 

➖If the opposing processes are chemical reactions, the equilibrium is called Chemical Equilibrium. 


ЁЯеАPhysical Equilibrium

➖Solid – liquid Equilibrium: H2O(s) = H2O(l) 

➖Liquid – Gas Equilibrium: H2O(l) = H2O(g)

➖Solid – Solution Equilibrium: Salt(Solid) = Salt(in solution)

➖Gas –Solution equilibrium: CO2(g) = CO2(in solution)


ЁЯеАEquilibrium in Chemical Process 

Reversible reaction:  


⚡A reaction in which not only the reactants react to form the products under certain conditions but also the products react to form reactants under the same conditions 


ЁЯМ╖Examples: 


3Fe(s) + 4H2O(g) \right left harpoons Fe3O4(s) + 4H2(g)


ЁЯеАIrreversible reaction: 


⚡A reaction cannot take place in the reverse direction, i.e. the products formed do not react to give back the reactants under the same condition.


ЁЯМ╖Example: 


AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(g)



ЁЯеАCharacteristics of Equilibrium State


⚡It can be attained only if the reversible reaction is carried out in closed vessel.


⚡It can be attained from either side of the reaction.


⚡A catalyst can hasten the approach of equilibrium but does not alter the state of equilibrium.


⚡It is dynamic in nature i.e. reaction does not stop but both forward and backward reactions take place at equal rate.


⚡Change of pressure, concentration or temperature favours one of the reactions (forward or backward) resulting in shift of equilibrium point in one direction.


⚡Law of Mass Action & Equilibrium Constant


“The rate at which a substance reacts is directly proportional to its active mass and rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to product of active masses of reactants each raised to a power equal to corresponding stoichiometric coefficient appearing in the balanced chemical equation”.


ЁЯТлFor reaction aA + bB \right left harpoons cC + dD


ЁЯТлRate of reaction ∝ Aa.Bb


ЁЯТлor rate of reaction = KAaBb


⚡where K is rate constant or velocity constant of the reaction at that temperature.


⚡Unit of rate constant (K) 

K = \frac{Rate\ of\ reaction}{A^aB^b}=\frac{molL^-^1 s^-^1}{(molL^1^)^a^+^b } = (molL^-^1)^1\ ^t^o\ ^n\ s^-^1 


ЁЯеАIonic Product:  


a) Product of ionic concentration due to ions already present in water or from a salt.


b) I.P. may be and may not be equal to Ksp. 


c) If ionic Product (IP) > Ksp ; precipitation takes place till I.P. equals Ksp


d) If Ionic Product < Ksp ; a precipitate will not be formed and the solution will be unsaturated.


e) If Ionic Product = Ksp ; a precipitate will not form an the solution is satuated in that salt.
