Lecture

Chemical Equilibrium: Concepts and Calculations

Description

This lecture covers the concept of chemical equilibrium, explaining how reactions tend to evolve towards the minimum free enthalpy point. It discusses the factors influencing the balance, the equilibrium constant, and the effect of changes in concentration, pressure, and temperature. The lecture also delves into the calculation of equilibrium constants using Gibbs energy. Additionally, it explores homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibrium, the principle of Le Chatelier, and the kinetics of reactions, emphasizing the importance of considering both thermodynamics and kinetics in understanding chemical processes.
