REACTION RATES AND REVERSIBLE REACTIONS
|
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Chatelier's Principle and Effect of Concentration |
By the end of the
lesson, the learner
should be able to:
- Explain chemical equilibrium -Define dynamic equilibrium -Investigate acid-base equilibrium using indicators -Explain why equilibrium appears static but is actually dynamic |
Experiment: Add 0.5M NaOH to 2cm³ in boiling tube with universal indicator. Add 0.5M HCl dropwise until green color (neutralization point). Continue adding base then acid alternately, observe color changes. Explain equilibrium as state where forward and backward reaction rates are equal. Use NH₄Cl ⇌ NH₃ + HCl example to show dynamic nature. Introduce equilibrium symbol ⇌.

Effect of Pressure and Temperature on Equilibrium
Industrial Applications - Haber Process Industrial Applications - Contact Process |
By the end of the
lesson, the learner
should be able to:
- Explain effect of pressure changes on equilibrium -Explain effect of temperature changes on equilibrium -Investigate NO₂/N₂O₄ equilibrium with temperature -Apply Le Chatelier's Principle to industrial processes |
Teacher demonstration: React copper turnings with concentrated HNO₃ to produce NO₂ gas in test tube. Heat and cool the tube, observe color changes: brown ⇌ pale yellow representing 2NO₂ ⇌ N₂O₄. Explain pressure effects using molecule count. Show Table 3.7 with pressure effects. Discuss temperature effects: heating favors endothermic direction, cooling favors exothermic direction. Use Table 3.8.
