Van't Hoff Equation
How do you solve for K in the van't hoff equation? I was confused on how to get the ln out and isolate K.

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
To take the ln out, you raise everything with a base e on both sides. Hope this helps!

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
You can get the ln out by raising e to the power of both sides of the equation! For example, if ln K = X, then K = e^x

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
Using e^(ln(k2/K1)), the antilogarithm e^x, on both sides is how you cancel out the natural log!

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
The way you cancel out ln is raising both sides of the equation with base e.
Re: Van't Hoff Equation
you would simplify out the difference in temperatures multiplied by delta h over R and then take the e of both sides to isolate out the K.

Following up with this question, does anybody have some advice as to how to solve problems with some form of calculus involved? I never took any in highschool so it's still quite difficult to grasp.

I don't think this class will require you to solve problems using calculus, but if you need help, Dr. Lavelle has a lot of resources available to you.

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
you have to cancel out ln by raising both sides by e. Then you can isolate K.

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
Raise e to the power of both sides to cancel out the ln!! Then divide/multiply depending on the K value you want!

Re: Van't Hoff Equation
You can solve the K by raising e to cancel the In, then isolate K by either multiplying or dividing K. Hopefully this helps! (:
