Equilibrium chemistry is concerned with systems in chemical equilibrium. The unifying principle is that the free energy of a system at equilibrium is the minimum possible, so that the slope of the free energy with respect to the reaction coordinate is zero.
Barium iodate, Ba(IO 3) 2, has a solubility product K sp = [Ba 2+][IO 3 −] 2 = 1.57 x 10 −9.Its solubility in pure water is 7.32 x 10 −4 M. However in a solution that is 0.0200 M in barium nitrate, Ba(NO 3) 2, the increase in the common ion barium leads to a decrease in iodate ion concentration.
A solubility equilibrium exists when a chemical compound in the solid state is in chemical equilibrium with a solution containing the compound. This type of equilibrium is an example of dynamic equilibrium in that some individual molecules migrate between the solid and solution phases such that the rates of dissolution and precipitation are equal to one another.
Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. [1] It is a physical science within the natural sciences that studies the chemical elements that make up matter and compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during reactions with other substances.
Under STP, a reaction between three cubic meters of hydrogen gas and one cubic meter of nitrogen gas will produce about two cubic meters of ammonia.. The law of combining volumes states that when gases chemically react together, they do so in amounts by volume which bear small whole-number ratios (the volumes calculated at the same temperature and pressure).
In chemistry, the lever rule is a formula used to determine the mole fraction (x i) or the mass fraction (w i) of each phase of a binary equilibrium phase diagram.It can be used to determine the fraction of liquid and solid phases for a given binary composition and temperature that is between the liquidus and solidus line.
The smallest object that appears to have an equilibrium shape is the icy moon Mimas at 396 km, but the largest icy object known to have an obviously non-equilibrium shape is the icy moon Proteus at 420 km, and the largest rocky bodies in an obviously non-equilibrium shape are the asteroids Pallas and Vesta at about 520 km. However, Mimas is not ...
A stoichiometric diagram of the combustion reaction of methane. Stoichiometry (/ ˌ s t ɔɪ k i ˈ ɒ m ɪ t r i / ⓘ) is the relationships between the masses of reactants and products before, during, and following chemical reactions.
