So I am going over the Equilibrium chapter in TBR... it is probably an older edition but I heard that the TBR books haven;t changed that much with the exception of the Organic Chemistry book.
Anyways, Chemical Equilibrium is a ratio right... [products]/[reactants]=K
so say that K=2 for A + B---> C
[C]=2, [A]=1, [B}=1... this works out
[C]=8, [A]=2, =2... also works out
also [C]=8, [A]=1, =4... works out too???
So as long as the concentrations satisfy the ratio determined by the equilibrium conditions at the set temperature is everything okay??? It seems weird that you can just change the concentrations to satisfy the equilibrium ratio.
Also, I was previously studying with EK and they did not go into as much detail as TBR... TBR has a lot of math too... is that good? Should I do the practice tests at the end of the chapter timed? 8 minutes per passage?
Thank you for all your help!
