7.2 The position of equilibrium

7.2.1 –Deduce the equilibrium constant expression (K_r) from the equation for a homogenous reaction.

Answer the following questions:

a.      What can change the value of K_c -Temperature

b.     The reaction must be at equilibrium for the value of K_c to be calculated

c.      Define the term homogeneous:

A substance or material that contains only one kind of compound or one element can be defined as homogeneous. Homogeneous is Latin for "the same kind". So for an equilibrium reaction, the reactants are homogeneous since they are the same state, so the products will be the same state as the reactants.
