7.1.A
Explain the relationship between the occurrence of a reversible chemical or physical process, and the establishment of equilibrium, to experimental observations.

  • 7.1.A.1 Many observable processes are reversible. Examples include evaporation and condensation of water, absorption and desorption of a gas, or dissolution and precipitation of a salt. Some important reversible chemical processes include the transfer of protons in acid-base reactions and the transfer of electrons in redox reactions.
  • 7.1.A.2 When equilibrium is reached, no observable changes occur in the system. Reactants and products are simultaneously present, and the concentrations or partial pressures of all species remain constant.
  • 7.1.A.3 The equilibrium state is dynamic. The forward and reverse processes continue to occur at equal rates, resulting in no net observable change.
  • 7.1.A.4 Graphs of concentration, partial pressure, or rate of reaction versus time for simple chemical reactions can be used to understand the establishment of chemical equilibrium.

动态平衡

一个可逆反应(reversible reaction)双向进行。化学平衡(chemical equilibrium)在正向和逆向速率变得相等时达到,所以浓度停止变化。平衡是动态(dynamic)的——两个反应都继续,但以匹配的速率,所以什么都看似不变。

动态平衡:正向和逆向速率变得相等
动态平衡:正向和逆向速率变得相等

上面的速率图解释为什么浓度稳定;接下来这个图显示浓度做什么——反应物下降而产物上升,直到一旦速率匹配,两者都保持恒定(它们不必相等)。

7.2.A
Explain the relationship between the direction in which a reversible reaction proceeds and the relative rates of the forward and reverse reactions.

  • 7.2.A.1 If the rate of the forward reaction is greater than the reverse reaction, then there is a net conversion of reactants to products. If the rate of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction, then there is a net conversion of products to reactants. An equilibrium state is reached when these rates are equal.

Learning ObjectiveEssential Knowledge

7.3.A
Represent the reaction quotient $Q_c$ or $Q_p$, for a reversible reaction, and the corresponding equilibrium expressions $K_c = Q_c$ or $K_p = Q_p$.

  • 7.3.A.1 The reaction quotient $Q_c$ describes the relative concentrations of reaction species at any time. For gas phase reactions, the reaction quotient may instead be written in terms of partial pressures as $Q_p$. The reaction quotient tends toward the equilibrium constant such that at equilibrium $K_c = Q_c$ and $K_p = Q_p$. As examples, for the reaction

    $$a\,\mathrm{A} + b\,\mathrm{B} \rightleftarrows c\,\mathrm{C} + d\,\mathrm{D}$$
    the law of mass action indicates that the equilibrium expression for $(K_c, Q_c)$ is

    • Equation: $K_c = \dfrac{[\mathrm{C}]^c [\mathrm{D}]^d}{[\mathrm{A}]^a [\mathrm{B}]^b}$

    and that for $(K_p, Q_p)$ is

    • Equation: $K_p = \dfrac{(P_\mathrm{C})^c (P_\mathrm{D})^d}{(P_\mathrm{A})^a (P_\mathrm{B})^b}$
    • Exclusion statement: Conversion between $K_c$ and $K_p$ will not be assessed on the AP Exam. Students should be aware of the conceptual differences and pay attention to whether $K_c$ or $K_p$ is used in an exam question.
    • Exclusion statement: Equilibrium calculations on systems where a dissolved species is in equilibrium with that species in the gas phase will not be assessed on the AP Exam.
  • 7.3.A.2 The reaction quotient does not include substances whose concentrations (or partial pressures) are independent of the amount, such as for solids and pure liquids.

反应商(reaction quotient)$Q$ 有与平衡表达式相同的形式但用当前浓度:

$$Q=\frac{[\text{products}]}{[\text{reactants}]}\ \text{(each raised to its coefficient)}.$$
在平衡处 $Q$ 等于平衡常数(equilibrium constant)$K$。比较它们预测方向:$Q 正向移动(朝产物);$Q>K$ 逆向移动;$Q=K$ 意味着已经在平衡。

从配平的方程写 $K$(纯固体和液体被略去)。从平衡浓度(或对 $K_p$ 的分压),代入并计算。$K_c$ 用摩尔浓度;$K_p$ 用压力。

Worked example. 对于 $\text{N}_2\text{O}_4\rightleftharpoons2\text{NO}_2$,平衡浓度是 $[\text{N}_2\text{O}_4]=0.20\ \text{M}$$[\text{NO}_2]=0.10\ \text{M}$。那么

$$K_c=\frac{[\text{NO}_2]^2}{[\text{N}_2\text{O}_4]}=\frac{(0.10)^2}{0.20}=0.050.$$
NO$_2$ 的系数 $2$ 变成幂;N$_2$O$_4$(系数 $1$)只是一次幂。

7.5.A
Explain the relationship between very large or very small values of $K$ and the relative concentrations of chemical species at equilibrium.

  • 7.5.A.1 Some equilibrium reactions have very large $K$ values and proceed essentially to completion. Others have very small $K$ values and barely proceed at all.

来源:美国大学理事会 AP 课程与考试说明

  • $K\gg 1$:产物强烈地被偏爱(反应几乎完全)。
  • $K\ll 1$:反应物被偏爱(很少反应)。
  • $K\approx 1$:两者都有显著的量。

$K$ 的大小告诉你平衡"坐"在哪里。

7.6.A
Represent a multistep process with an overall equilibrium expression, using the constituent $K$ expressions for each individual reaction.

  • 7.6.A.1 When a reaction is reversed, $K$ is inverted.
  • 7.6.A.2 When the stoichiometric coefficients of a reaction are multiplied by a factor $c$, $K$ is raised to the power $c$.
  • 7.6.A.3 When reactions are added together, the $K$ of the resulting overall reaction is the product of the $K$'s for the reactions that were summed.
  • 7.6.A.4 Since the expressions for $K$ and $Q$ have identical mathematical forms, all valid algebraic manipulations of $K$ also apply to $Q$.

$K$ 以可预测的方式变化:反转一个反应反转 $K$($1/K$);把系数乘以 $n$$K$ 提高到 $n$ 次幂;把反应相加相乘它们的 $K$ 值。只有温度改变 $K$ 本身的值。

7.7

平衡浓度的计算

大纲
Learning ObjectiveEssential Knowledge

7.7.A
Identify the concentrations or partial pressures of chemical species at equilibrium based on the initial conditions and the equilibrium constant.

  • 7.7.A.1 The concentrations or partial pressures of species at equilibrium can be predicted given the balanced reaction, initial concentrations, and the appropriate $K$.
  • 7.7.A.2 When $Q < K$, the reaction will proceed with a net consumption of reactants and generation of products. When $Q > K$, the reaction will proceed with a net consumption of products and generation of reactants. When $Q = K$, the system is at dynamic equilibrium; both forward and reverse reactions proceed at the same rate, and the proportion of reactants and products remains constant.

用一张 ICE 表(Initial, Change, Equilibrium):填入起始量、用摩尔比以 $x$ 表示变化,然后代入 $K$ 表达式并解 $x$。当 $K$ 小时,近似"$x$ 可忽略"常常简化代数。

Worked example. 对于 $\text{H}_2+\text{I}_2\rightleftharpoons2\text{HI}$,$K_c=50$,以各 $0.100\ \text{M}$ 的 H$_2$ 和 I$_2$ 开始。ICE 表给出平衡 $[\text{H}_2]=[\text{I}_2]=0.100-x$$[\text{HI}]=2x$。代入:

$$K_c=\frac{(2x)^2}{(0.100-x)^2}=50\;\Rightarrow\;\frac{2x}{0.100-x}=\sqrt{50}=7.07\;\Rightarrow\;x=0.078,$$
所以 $[\text{HI}]=2x=0.156\ \text{M}$。对两侧取平方根在这里起作用,因为表达式是一个完全平方。

7.9.A
Identify the response of a system at equilibrium to an external stress, using Le Châtelier's principle.

  • 7.9.A.1 Le Châtelier's principle can be used to predict the response of a system to stresses such as addition or removal of a chemical species, change in temperature, change in volume/pressure of a gas-phase system, or dilution of a reaction system.
  • 7.9.A.2 Le Châtelier's principle can be used to predict the effect that a stress will have on experimentally measurable properties such as pH, temperature, and color of a solution.

7.10.A
Explain the relationships between $Q$, $K$, and the direction in which a reversible reaction will proceed to reach equilibrium.

  • 7.10.A.1 A disturbance to a system at equilibrium causes $Q$ to differ from $K$, thereby taking the system out of equilibrium. The system responds by bringing $Q$ back into agreement with $K$, thereby establishing a new equilibrium state.
  • 7.10.A.2 Some stresses, such as changes in concentration, cause a change in $Q$ only. A change in temperature causes a change in $K$. In either case, the concentrations or partial pressures of species redistribute to bring $Q$ and $K$ back into equality.

7.11.A
Calculate the solubility of a salt based on the value of $K_{sp}$ for the salt.

  • 7.11.A.1 The dissolution of a salt is a reversible process whose extent can be described by $K_{sp}$, the solubility-product constant.
  • 7.11.A.2 The solubility of a substance can be calculated from the $K_{sp}$ for the dissolution process. This relationship can also be used to predict the relative solubility of different substances.
  • 7.11.A.3 The solubility rules (see 4.7.A.5) can be quantitatively related to $K_{sp}$, in which $K_{sp}$ values $>1$ correspond to soluble salts.
  • 7.11.A.4 The molar solubility of one or more species in a saturated solution can be used to calculate the $K_{sp}$ of a substance.
Learning ObjectiveEssential Knowledge

7.12.A
Identify the solubility of a salt, and/or the value of $K_{sp}$ for the salt, based on the concentration of a common ion already present in solution.

  • 7.12.A.1 The solubility of a salt is reduced when it is dissolved into a solution that already contains one of the ions present in the salt. The impact of this "common-ion effect" on solubility can be understood qualitatively using Le Châtelier's principle or calculated from the $K_{sp}$ for the dissolution process.

对于一个微溶的盐,溶度积(solubility product)$K_{sp}$ 是它溶解的平衡常数:

$$\text{M}_a\text{X}_b(s)\rightleftharpoons a\,\text{M}^{b+}+b\,\text{X}^{a-},\qquad K_{sp}=[\text{M}^{b+}]^a[\text{X}^{a-}]^b.$$
一个更小的 $K_{sp}$ 意味着更难溶。同离子效应(common-ion effect)——加一个已经在盐里的离子——把平衡推回并降低溶解度。

Worked example. 氯化银有 $K_{sp}=1.8\times10^{-10}$。若它的摩尔溶解度是 $s$,那么 $[\text{Ag}^+]=[\text{Cl}^-]=s$,所以 $K_{sp}=s^2$

$$s=\sqrt{1.8\times10^{-10}}=1.3\times10^{-5}\ \text{M}.$$
加 NaCl(一个同离子)会提高 $[\text{Cl}^-]$,迫使 $s$ 下降——远少的 AgCl 会溶解。

考试技巧

  • 在平衡处正向和逆向速率相等,但通常不相等。
  • 把纯固体和液体留在 $K$ 表达式之外;一个大的 $K$ 偏爱产物,一个小的 $K$ 偏爱反应物。
  • 应用勒沙特列:加反应物 → 向前移动;提高压力 → 朝气体摩尔更少移动;提高温度 → 朝吸热方向移动。
  • 一个催化剂不移动平衡的位置——它只加速逼近。
  • 对平衡浓度用一张 ICE 表,当 $K$ 小时用小-$x$ 近似。
