Re: When to use
The Van't Hoff equation relates the change in the equilibrium constant, K, of a chemical reaction to the change in temperature given the standard enthalpy change.
This equation can be used to analyze the relationship between K and the change in temperature.

Re: When to use
You can use it when you can assume that delta H and delta S are the same at both temps.

The Van't Hoff equation relates the equilibruim constant to standard condition enthalpy and entropy. You can overlap two instances of the Van't Hoff equation to find the change in enthalpy at two different temperatures.

Re: When to use
This equation relates K (both Kp and Kc) to temperature. So any time a problem is asking about one of those in relation to each other, it's probably a good indication to use it.
Re: When to use
Because this equation relates the change in temperature to the change in reaction constant, you can use it to figure out either one of these things, depending on the information given.
