  • Rate constant
  • Partition coefficient
  • Reaction quotientRight answer
From R2.3 How far? The extent of chemical change (HL), 13 questions.

What this set covers

Equilibrium at HL: the reaction quotient Q against K, calculating Kc from equilibrium amounts, finding concentrations from K, reversing or scaling equations, and linking ΔG⦵ to K.

Common mix-up
Students often forget how K changes with the equation: reversing it gives 1/K and doubling the coefficients squares K.
Revision tip
Compare Q with K for a made-up mixture and predict the direction of change, then check with the K = 4.0 reversal and doubling examples.
