Acid-Base Equilibrium
Reversible Reactions
Reversible reactions are fundamental in acid-base chemistry, where reactants do not convert completely into products. Instead, products can react to form reactants, resulting in two simultaneous reactions: one forward and one reverse. Initially, the forward reaction proceeds faster, but as products accumulate, the reverse reaction rate increases.
Reversible Reaction: A chemical reaction where products can revert to reactants.
Forward Reaction: Reactants form products.
Reverse Reaction: Products form reactants.
Example:
Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium is reached when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions become equal. At this point, the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant, although both reactions continue to occur.
Equilibrium: The state where the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.
Dynamic Process: Both reactions continue, but concentrations do not change.
Le Chatelier’s Principle
Effect of Changing Concentration
Le Chatelier’s Principle states that if a system at equilibrium is disturbed by changing the concentration of a reactant or product, the system will shift its equilibrium position to counteract the disturbance and restore balance.
Stress: Any change in concentration, temperature, or pressure that disturbs equilibrium.
Response: The system shifts to relieve the stress.
Adding or Removing Reactants
Adding a Reactant: Increases the forward reaction rate, shifting equilibrium toward products.
Removing a Reactant: Decreases the forward reaction rate, shifting equilibrium toward reactants.
Adding or Removing Products
Adding a Product: Increases the reverse reaction rate, shifting equilibrium toward reactants.
Removing a Product: Decreases the reverse reaction rate, shifting equilibrium toward products.
Application to Acid-Base Equilibrium
Example Reaction
Consider the acid-base equilibrium:
Predicting Shifts in Equilibrium
Add CHO2-: Shifts equilibrium toward reactants.
Remove HCHO2: Shifts equilibrium toward reactants.
Remove H3O+: Shifts equilibrium toward products.
Add HCHO2: Shifts equilibrium toward products.
Connection to Human Health
Importance of Equilibrium in the Body
Acid-base equilibrium is crucial for maintaining physiological balance in the human body. Disruptions in equilibrium can affect processes such as blood pH regulation, enzyme activity, and metabolic pathways.
Example: The bicarbonate buffer system in blood maintains pH by shifting equilibrium in response to changes in CO2 or H+ concentration.
Summary Table: Effects of Concentration Changes on Equilibrium
Change | Direction of Shift | Reason |
|---|---|---|
Add Reactant | To Products | Forward reaction rate increases |
Remove Reactant | To Reactants | Forward reaction rate decreases |
Add Product | To Reactants | Reverse reaction rate increases |
Remove Product | To Products | Reverse reaction rate decreases |
