Equilibrium : CalcKp (2 Variations)
In one experiment chemists studied the formation of phosgene, COCl2, by mixing {y} atm of carbon monoxide and {z} atm of Cl2 in a reaction vessel at 700K. After the system reached equilibrium, the total pressure was {x} atm. Calculate Kp for the reaction.
Hint: Remember that the total pressure is the sum of all the partial pressures.
Note:
Do Not use scientific notation
DO NOT use spaces
DO NOT write in the units.
Be sure to write your answer with only one decimal place even if this is not the correct number of significant figures.
You have 0.50 mol SbCl5 present initially in a 1.0L flask. The system is allowed to reach equilibrium at 450oC. There is 0.10 mol Cl2 present at equilibrium. What is the equilibrium constant, K?
A Simplified Model To Predict the Effect of Increasing Atmospheric CO2 on Carbonate Chemistry in the OceanBrian J. Bozlee, Maria Janebo, and Ginger Jahn The chemistry of dissolved inorganic carbon in seawater is reviewed and used to predict the potential effect of rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It is found that calcium carbonate may become unsaturated in cold surface seawater by the year 2100, resulting in the destruction of calcifying organisms such as coral. Bozlee, Brian J.; Janebo, Maria; Jahn, Ginger. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 213.

Discovering the Thermodynamics of Simultaneous Equilibria. An Entropy Analysis Activity Involving Consecutive EquilibriaThomas H. Bindel This activity explores the thermodynamics of simultaneous, consecutive equilibria and is appropriate for second-year high school or AP chemistry. Students discover that a reactant-favored (entropy-diminishing) reaction can be caused to happen if it is coupled with a product-favored reaction of sufficient entropy production. Bindel, Thomas H.

Teaching Physical Chemistry Experiments with a Computer Simulation by LabVIEWA. Belletti, R. Borromei, and G. Ingletto This article reports on a computer simulation developed with the software LabVIEW of the physical chemistry experiment regarding the vapor pressure measurements of a pure liquid as a function of temperature, as well as a system of data collecting that emphasizes the similarities between the virtual and real experiment. Belletti, A.; Borromei, R.; Ingletto, G. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1353.
Nitrogen Oxides (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Nitrogen Oxides: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". Two of the most important nitrogen oxides, N2O4 and NO2, are in equilibrium with each other. We are interested in how this equilibrium shifts with temperature. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.

How Accurate Is the Steady State ApproximationLars Ole Haustedt, Jonathan M. Goodman The steady-state approximation is commonly used in enzyme catalysis kinetics calculations, but how much error does the approximation introduce? This Java applet allows you to visually determine the accuracy of the steady-state and pre-equilibrium approximations.
