1. What is mass law constant?Ans: Mass action law states that a chemical reaction frequency is proportional to the active masses of reacting materials at a constant temperature. Kc is the reaction constant of equilibrium, while Kp is the constant of equilibrium found by applying partial pressure. 2. What are KP and KC?Ans: Kc and… Continue reading FAQs

K p=K c ( R T ) ∆ n g Kp  = Kx . P Δng Where, ∆ n g = moles of gaseous products – moles of gaseous reactants. Kc is the equilibrium constant expressed in terms of the concentration of the reactants/products. Similarly, Kp is the constant in terms of the partial pressures of the substances and… Continue reading Relation between Kc, Kp and Kx

For a balanced reaction of the type, aA + bB ⇌  cC + dD According to the law of mass action, the constant value obtained by relating equilibrium concentrations of reactants and products is called the equilibrium constant. For the forward reaction, this is given by K c=[ C ] c [ D ] d /… Continue reading Representation of the Equilibrium Constant

The concentration of reactants and products, at equilibrium, are constant at a given temperature. Consider the following simple reversible reaction where A & B are the reactants whereas C & D are the products. A + B ⇌ C + D A mixture of products and reactants in a state of chemical equilibrium is known as an… Continue reading The Equilibrium Constant (Kc)

What is the Law of Mass Action? The law of mass action states that the rate of a reaction is proportional to the product of the concentrations of each reactant. This law can be used to explain the behavior exhibited by solutions in dynamic equilibria. The law of mass action also suggests that the ratio of… Continue reading Law Of Mass Action
