For ideal gases, μi = μio + RT ln Pi /Po where Po = 1 bar

the nature of reactants and products;
KP = [(PB /Po)b /(PA /Po)a ]eq
= [(PB)b /(PA)a ]eq (Po)a-b
• ΔrGo is generally not equal to zero;
KP = ∏Piνi (Po)−∆ν ΔrGo < 0 => KP > 1
∆ν = ∑ν (products) − ∑ν (reactants) ΔrGo > 0 => KP < 1
• KP is thermodynamic
equilibrium constant;
• KP is dimensionless;
• At constant T, KP does not
depend on pressure;
• KP depends on temperature
only;
Equilibrium Constants: Ideal Gases
KP = ∏ (Pi)eνi (Po)−∆ν xi = Pi /P or Pi = xi P
KP = ∏ xiνi P∆ν (Po)−∆ν KP = Kx (P/Po)∆ν
Kx = ∏ xiνi

where co = 1 mol L−1 ; ci = ci /(1 mol L−1)
KP = Kc (co RT/ Po)∆ν Kc = ∏ ciνi

Equilibrium Constant: Effect of Temperature
ΔrGo/ T = ‒ R lnK [∂(ΔrGo/ T)/∂T]P = ‒ (ΔrHo/ T2 )
[∂(‒R lnK)/∂T]P = ‒ (ΔrHo/T2) [∂lnK/∂T]P = ΔrHo/(RT2 )
If ΔrHo is independent of temperature, i.e. ΔCp = 0
ln(K2/K1) = ΔrHo/ R (T2 − T1)/ (T2T1)

van’t Hoff equation
‒ ΔrGo/R T = lnK
ΔrGo = ΔrHo ‒ T ΔrSo
lnK = ‒ ΔrHo/RT +ΔrSo /R

Equilibrium Constant: Effect of Temperature
If ΔrHo is NOT independent of temperature, i.e. ΔCp ≠ 0
ΔrHo(T) = ΔrHo(298) + ∫T ΔCp dT => ΔrHo(T) = ΔrHo(298) + ΔCp (T – 298)
ΔrSo(T) = ΔrSo(298) + ∫T (ΔCp/T) dT => ΔrSo(T) = ΔrSo(298) + ΔCp ln(T/298)
ΔrGo(T) = ΔrHo(T) – T ΔrSo(T) =>
ΔrGo(T) = ΔrHo(298) + ΔCp(T – 298) – T [ΔrSo(298) + ΔCp ln(T/298)]
ΔrGo(T) = ΔrHo(298) – T ΔrSo(298) + ΔCp (T – 298) – T ΔCp ln(T/298)

lnKT = – ΔrHo(298)/RT + ΔrSo(298)/R – ΔCp (T – 298)/RT + ΔCp ln(T/298)/R
RTlnKT = RTlnK298 – ΔCp (T – 298) + T ΔCp ln(T/298)
lnKT – lnK298 = – ΔCp(T – 298)/RT + ΔCp ln(T/298)/R

ln(KT/K298) = – ΔCp(T – 298)/RT + ΔCp ln(T/298)/R
Equilibrium Constant: Effect of Pressure
ΔrGo does NOT vary with the change in
ΔrGo = ‒ RT lnKP pressure, (∂KP/∂P)T = 0
KP is independent of P if the reaction involves ideal gases
KP does depend on P if the reaction involves real gases
For reactions involving ideal gases, Kf = KP
(∂KP/∂P)T = 0
But this does NOT mean that the amounts of various

gases at equilibrium do NOT change with pressure
Equilibrium Constant: Effect of Pressure
For the dissociation reaction A(g) ⇋ 2B(g), ∆ν > 0
n(1 − α) 2nα
xA = n(1 − α)/n(1 + α) = (1 − α)/(1 + α)

xB = 2nα/n(1 + α) = 2α/(1 + α)
PA = P (1 − α)/(1 + α) PB = P 2α/(1 + α)
KP = (PB)2 /PA KP = [P 2α/(1 + α)]2 / [P (1 − α)/(1 + α)]
KP is constant
KP = [4α2 /(1 − α2)]P
When P is small, α is large
α = √[KP /(KP + 4P)] When P is large, α is small
=> Le Chatelier’s Principle
Equilibrium Constant: Influence of Inert Gas
aA ⇋ bB
KP = (PB )b /(PA )a
= (xBP)b /(xAP)a Pi = xiP
KP = (xBP)b /(xAP)a KP = (xB)b /(xA)a (P)(b −a)
Kx = (xB)b /(xA)a KP = Kx (P)∆ν

If no moles of inert gas is introduced
xA = nA/(no+ nA+ nB) = nA/∑ni xB = nB/∑ni
For ∆ν = o, Eqm remains
KP = (nB/∑ni)b /(nA/∑ni )a (P)∆ν undisturbed;
For ∆ν > o, more products will
KP = (nB)b /(nA)a (P/ ∑ni )∆ν form;
For ∆ν < o, reaction will be
depressed
Le Chatelier’s Principle: (∂G/∂ξ)T, P = ΔrG = 0, at eqm.
Since (∂G/∂ξ)T, P is a We need only to determine the

sign of the derivatives
function of T, P, and ξ
(∂ξe/∂T)P and (∂ξe/∂P)T
d(∂G/∂ξ) = [∂(∂G/∂ξ)/∂T]dT + [∂(∂G/∂ξ)/∂P]dP + [∂(∂G/∂ξ)/∂ξ]dξ
Let [∂(∂G/∂ξ)/∂ξ] = G˝
d(∂G/∂ξ) = (∂ΔrG/∂T) dT + (∂ΔrG /∂P) dP + G˝dξ
d(∂G/∂ξ) = − ΔrS dT + ΔrVdP + G˝dξ
0 = − (ΔrH/T) (dT)e + ΔrV (dP)e + G˝d ξe
(∂ξe/∂T)P = ΔrH/(T G˝) (∂ξe/∂P)T = − ΔrV/G˝
At equilibrium, G is minimum, G˝ is positive
Equilibrium Constant: Effect of Catalyst
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a
reaction without itself being used up
ΔrGo = ‒ RT lnKP
KP = exp (‒ ΔrGo/RT)
ΔrGo is a state function

and independent of
pathway
For a reaction mixture, that is not at equilibrium, a

catalyst will increase rates of both forward and reverse
reactions so that the equilibrium will reach sooner
A catalyst cannot shift the position of an equilibrium
