A chemical reaction symbolized by a chemical equation in which the reactants and product are separated by an arrow that points to the right, toward the products. (491) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A chemical reaction symbolized by an equation in which the products of a forward reaction have become the reactants, and the reactants are now the products. This is indicated by an arrow that points toward the left. (491) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Point at which both the forward and reverse reactions in an equation have equal reaction rates. [When this occurs, the amounts of each substance in the reaction will not change, despite the fact that both reactions still proceed.] (492) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A value that describes the concentrations at which a reaction comes to equilibrium. The equilibrium constant varies with temperature. (496) |
|
|
Term
When K is large, the equilibrium is weighted toward the [products/reactants] side of the equation. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When K is small, the equilibrium is weighted toward the [products/reactants] side of the equation. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When K is near unity, the equilibrium is: |
|
Definition
balanced between reactants and products. (498) |
|
|
Term
For the generic chemical equilibrium reaction
aA + bB ↔ cC + dD
we define the equilibrium constant
by what equation? |
|
Definition
K = [C]c[D]d ÷ [A]a[B]b
(496) |
|
|
Term
When a solid appears
in a chemical equilibrium,
it [is/is not] included in Equation 15.2. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When a liquid appears
in a chemical equation,
it [is/is not] included in Equation 15.2. |
|
Definition
It is not included.
[This applies only to the liquid phase; it does not apply to the aqueous phase.]

|
|
Term
LeChatelier's Principle: When a stress (such as a change in _______, ________, or _______) is applied to an equilibrium, the reaction will shift in a way that relieves the _________ and restores the __________. |
|
Definition
When a stress (such as a change in concentration, pressure, or temperature) is applied to an equilibrium, the reaction will shift in a way that relieves the stress and restores the equilibrium.
(501) |
|
|
Term
LeChatelier's Principle ignores
__________ and __________
as a source of stress to the equilibrium. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When an equilibrium is subjected to an increase in pressure, it will shift [toward/away from] the side with the largest number of gas molecules. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
If pressure decreases,an equilibrium will shift [toward/away from]
the side with the largest number
of gas molecules.
|
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When temperature is raised,an equilibrium will shift[toward/away from]
the side of the equation
that contains energy. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
When temperature is lowered,
an equilibrium will shift
[toward/away from]
the side of the equation
that contains energy. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The reaction in which
an H+ separates from an acid molecule
so that it can be donated
in another reaction.
(514) |
|
|
Term
An acid whose ionization reaction
works very well
is said to be a _____________. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
An acid whose ionization reaction
does not produce many H+ ions
is said to be a ____________. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The equilibrium constant
for an acid's ionization reaction.
(514) |
|
|
Term
If the ionization constant of an acid is large, the acid is considered a [strong/weak] acid. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
If the ionization constant of an acid
is not large, the acid is considered
to be a [strong/weak] acid. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
In general,
the larger the ionization constant,
the [stronger/weaker] the acid. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A scale that measures
the acidity of a solution.
The lower the pH,
the more acidic the solution.
(516) |
|
