Re: Van't Hoff
The Van't Hoff equation is used to calculate K at different temperatures if deltaH is known

Re: Van't Hoff
We can use the Vant Hoff Equation when we know the different temperatures we are using, delta H, and the original equilibrium constant.

Re: Van't Hoff
Adding onto what has already been said, the Van't Hoff equation can also look like this depending on certain conditions:
ln (k2/k1) = (-ΔH°/(RT2)) + (ΔH°/RT1) assuming that ΔS° is constant
ln (k2/k1) = (-ΔH°R) [ (1/T2) - (1/T1)] assuming that ΔH° is constant
ln (k2/k1) = (-ΔH°/(RT2)) + (ΔH°/RT1) assuming that ΔS° is constant
ln (k2/k1) = (-ΔH°R) [ (1/T2) - (1/T1)] assuming that ΔH° is constant

Re: Van't Hoff
It depends on the information that you are given and what you are trying to solve. So if they give you two K values for two different temperatures, that is a clue that the van't Hoff equation can be used. If you are ever unsure on what equation to use write down everything you know and what do you need to find out and see what equation fits best.

Re: Van't Hoff
The Van't Hoff equation can be used to find the enthalpy of a reaction when given two equilibrium constants and two temperature constants, I believe. Correct me if I am wrong.
