Topics Covered:

• Equilibrium 

• Equilibrium Constant

  • Rate Constant (k) vs Equilibrium Constant (K)

  • What K Depends On

  • Manipulations with K

• Principles of Le Chatelier

Testing Tips:

The equilibrium constant never has units! Definitely spend time understanding the differences between k and K since both of them are used a lot in multi-part problems.

Topics Covered:

• Quotient (Q)

  • Q vs K

  • How Q Relates to Which Reaction Direction is Favored

• Kp

• Equations with Kp and Kc

• ICE Charts

• Example ICE Chart Problems

• x < 5% Rule

Testing Tips:

Quotient is something you with use a LOT (especially for solubility problems). Also, you must always remember to use the x < 5% when doing ICE charts.

Topics Covered:

• Ksp 

  • Quotient and Ksp

  • What Ksp Depends On

• Solubility

• Saturated Solutions

• Examples of Ksp/Solubility Problems (3)

Testing Tips:

The language is sometimes weird when asking about solubility problems, so remember that a saturated solution is one in equilibrium. I recommend practicing these problems a bit more.
