Re: Reaction Mechanisms

If you know the spontaneity then you can possibly use the change in moles to assume the enthalpy. I don't think this would ever come up though

Re: Catalysts in Rate Law

So does an increased concentration of an aqueous catalyst increase the rate of the reaction?

Re: K constants

I think relating big K to the forward and reverse reactions is the only way to connect them.

if you can assume the sign of the enthalpy and entropy you can sometimes use that to determine the sign of delta G.

A positive entropy will always make a reaction more favorable. The temperature can only change by how much.

There will usually be one clear method to used based on the information provided by the problem. If Hess's method can be used, it is the most accurate method.

Re: Temperature's effect on Kc

Consider which side of the reaction equation has heat energy. If heat energy is a reactant, an increase would result in a shift towards the products and vice verse. Essentially treat energy as a part of the reaction and use le chatlier's.

Re: Reaction Quotient

Both K and Q represent the ratio of products to reactants, but using Q implies that the reaction is not at equilibrium and the ratio will shift until equilibrium is reached. At this point, the ratio is represented as K
