Chemical reaction equilibrium constant
Thread Content
Can the equilibrium constant of a chemical reaction be greater than 1? If possible, when will it be greater than 1?
The chemical equilibrium constant can certainly be greater than 1. For a chemical reaction equation of the form aA + bB = cC + dD, then K = (a raised to the power of the partial pressure of A × b raised to the power of the partial pressure of B) / (c raised to the power of the partial pressure of C × d raised to the power of the partial pressure of D)
There are quite a few cases where the chemical equilibrium constant is greater than 1, right?
This post surprised me a bit. :funk:
Yes, it’s normal for it to be greater than 1.
In complex reactions, reversibility (of reactions) is common. Generally, when the reaction reaches equilibrium, the macroscopic reaction rate is equal to zero. If the velocity is expressed in the form of a power function, it is possible to derive the relationship between the forward and reverse reaction rate constants and the equilibrium constant at a certain temperature.
I’m speechless; go back and read some books by yourself, and don’t bring up every little question
