Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The terms “product favored system” and “reactant favored system” are to be defined and one example of each has to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

A chemical process can be categorized as reactant-favored or product-favored. It depends upon the concentration of products and reactants at the stage of equilibrium. If products predominated over reactants, then it called product-favored process. If reactants are predominated over products, then it is called reactant-favored process.

Explanation of Solution

A system is said to be product favored if products predominate over reactants at the stage of equilibrium. These reactions are generally spontaneous in nature. For example: reaction of bromine with aluminum, rusting of iron and combustion of gasoline are product favored reactions. Some product favored reactions are shown below.

  C8H18(l)C8H18(g)                  Product favoredC12H22O11(s)C12H22O11(aq)   Product favored

At equilibrium, if reactants predominate over products, then the system is categorized as reactant favored system. It is opposite of a product-favored process. An example of reactant-favored system is reaction of sodium metal and chlorine gas to produce sodium chloride.

2Na(s)+Cl2(g)2NaCl(s)               Reactant favored

  • When a mixture of hydrogen and bromine is maintained at normal atmospheric pressure and heated above 200. °C in a closed container, the hydrogen and bromine react to form hydrogen bromide and a gas-phase equilibrium is established. Write a balanced chemical equation for the equilibrium reaction. Use bond enthalpies from Table 6.2 ( Sec. 6-6b) to estimate the enthalpy change for the reaction. Based on your answers to parts (a) and (b), which is more important in determining the position of this equilibrium, the entropy effect or the energy effect? In which direction will the equilibrium shift as the temperature increases above 200. °C? Explain. Suppose that the pressure were increased to triple its initial value. In which direction would the equilibrium shift? Why is the equilibrium not established at room temperature?
    Adenosine triphosphate, ATP, is used as a free-energy source by biological cells. (See the essay on page 624.) ATP hydrolyzes in the presence of enzymes to give ADP: ATP(aq)+H2O(l)ADP(aq)+H2PO4(aq);G=30.5kJ/molat25C Consider a hypothetical biochemical reaction of molecule A to give molecule B: A(aq)B(aq);G=+15.0kJ/molat25C Calculate the ratio [B]/[A] at 25C at equilibrium. Now consider this reaction coupled to the reaction for the hydrolysis of ATP: A(aq)+ATP(aq)+H2O(l)B(aq)+ADP(aq)+H2PO4(aq) If a cell maintains a high ratio of ATP to ADP and H2PO4 by continuously making ATP, the conversion of A to B can be made highly spontaneous. A characteristic value of this ratio is [ATP][ADP][H2PO4]=500 Calculate the ratio [B][A] in this case and compare it with the uncoupled reaction. Compared with the uncoupled reaction, how much larger is this ratio when coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP?
    The following equilibrium is established in a closed container: C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g)H=393kJmol1 How does the equilibrium shift in response to each of the following stresses?
