Thank you soooooo much!!! I love the way you simplify complex concepts and I love the stimulations! I think everyone should watch your videos and benefit from them!!!
Thank you for helping me through chemistry's difficult concepts. I feel hopeful even when things are hazy in class as I know I can look up the concept on your channel and find clarity! Cheers to you for sharing your knowledge and gift as a teacher!

Products/reactants Equilibrium constant uses molarity so before you set up the equation you need to balance the equation, find the molarity of each product and reactant. Then you set up an equation that multiplies the molarity of all the products with exponents that are the coefficients in the reaction. This has to be over the molarity of the reactants multiplied together with exponents that are the coefficients. Should look like this: (C)^c(D)^d ----------------- (A)^a(B)^b If Keq < 1 it favors reactants in the left direction. If Keq > 1 it favors products in the right direction. By the way solids and liquids are not in the equation.
Equilibrium constant (K) is equal to (C)^c x (D)^d / (A)^a x (B)^b. There is an invisible multiplication sign in the middle, so you have to multiple the molarities/concentrations of the products and divide that over by the molarities/concentrations of the reactants to get K. (And you get molarity by using C = n/V)
i've been watching your videos since my first intro. chem class a 1.5 years ago. i'm in chem 2 now and you are still doing god's work (i'm atheist btw). can't thank you enough for this invaluable resource, sir
depends on the forward reaction, if its exothermic (which is the case for most reactions) then clearly if u increase the temperature the equilibrium will favor the endothermic reaction (which is the backward reaction) which increases the reactants, making the K value lower. i hope that was helpful!!
Bavley Guerguis I am not a very bright student. It would mean a lot if someone else were to explain it to me. I'm not able to comprehend from internet sources
Actually I didn't get u yarrr. How can u explain so nicely... Equilibrium constant was a doubt in my mind for 6 years.. U just cleared in a 6 min.... But u r lilbit fast.. I watched at 0.75X .. it was so helpful... Love u bro 😎. From INDIA 🇮🇳
Thank you very much. You say if Kc is greater than 1, it moves from reactants to the products side. And if the Kc is less than 1, it moves products to reactants. My question is when can we have the equilibrium mixture for an appreciable concentration of both reactants and products ?
In equilibrium constant the reaction is reversible hence the double arrows, meaning reactants can be products and products can be reactants. But we try to figure out if we have one more than the other by our constant K. Constant K measures out if we have more reactants or if we have more products at equilibrium. K represents the concentration of our products over our reactants. K>>1 reactant to product, K
Always enjoy these videos. I am still confused on one thing. At nine minutes during an ICE table the change in H2O is shown as .038 mols. The initial value is zero and the equilibrium value is .138. So why is the change not .138?
uh didnt you watch the video? concentrations in products / concentration in reactants but make sure you multiply them and properly exponentiate them to their coefficient. those values will be given in a problem or determined experimentally. you asked this 2 years ago so i doubt you give a rats ass about the answer now
Great video! I wonder why the temperature has an impact on what will be produced more, the reactant or the product, and therefore, what the K value is. What role does temperature play in the way that at one moment the product can be produced more than the reactant (thus, favoring the forward reaction)? Conversely, how does a lower temperature of the same reaction make it favor the reverse reaction?
+2ndintelligentWorld no it wouldn't be because the number is way below 1. (1.0 x 10^-30=.0000000000000000000000000000001) That means there would be more reactants because the products aren't forming, so it would be to the left.
If a reaction has a very low K value, would that mean that the reaction at that temperature is non spontaneous as there are very few products. Also, if the k value is very large, would that mean that the reaction is spontaneous as there are many products?
Hi, I just have one doubt: why do we multiply ( the products by the products and the reactants by the reactants) instead of adding, when calculating the equilibrium constant?
How can we solve units of concentration for the followinv reaction? I have tried so hard on it but couldn't understand that how do we get moldm‐³ as its answer. When nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia, the equilibrium mixture contains 0.31 mol dm‐³ and 0.50 mol dm‐³ of nitrogen and hydrogen respectively. If the Kc is 0.50 mol‐²dm⁶, what is the equilibrium concentration of NH3?
I already knew how to solve it,but the question that was annoying me was that what is k constant and what does its value represent,thanks very much sir,definitely subscribing👍👍👍👍
thank you so much but i have a question! we dont write the liquids and solids in the equation becuz it doesnt affect the concentration but what about aqueous substances? do we include them in the equation? does it affect the concentration
how do you know the concentration of the substances that youre putting into the K value equation ? is this information usually given ? (high school chemistry btw)

One thing missing: solid and liquid exceptions.

solid and liquid should not be included in the equilibrium because only gas has pressure.
Others should know👍

@@thisisnotmyfinalform7856 No, it doesn't. It tells us whether we'll have more products or more reactants when we reach equilibrium.

Thank you sir. Simple, effective, insightful and fun. Just what education should be.
dude i fucking love you
4:03 You said "standard temperature and pressure", but then the box said 25 degrees Celsius, which is room temperature. Which did you intend?
overall the chemical reaction's entourage
you are super helpful man bless you and all the generations that come behind you!
Thank you Mr. ANderson...I have watched your videos lately and I really learned a lot
You're helping me get a degree!
Thank you for the videos! Really clarified important concepts!
u r the goat & teach sm better than my teacher thank u sir
Mr. Andersen saving my but again. First in high school now in my senior year of college.
4:26 Why does the increase in temperature decrease the K value?
depends on the forward reaction, if its exothermic (which is the case for most reactions) then clearly if u increase the temperature the equilibrium will favor the endothermic reaction (which is the backward reaction) which increases the reactants, making the K value lower.
i hope that was helpful!!
Very helpful! I learned this a week ago and completely forgot the concept. After watching this video however, I was able to jog my memory!
can someone help me... if the product I have in the reaction is in (aq) aqueous state, should I leave it out when calculating for Kp?
Syazlina Aasim yes, you only use the gaseous stuff in your calculations :)
Bavley Guerguis Do you mind explaining?
Michael Malize could you please explain

mr anderson can you do more practiced questions and examples please???
Of course that was helpful...thanks! You are the best, Andersen..
Didn't take chemistry yet, but still understood it. Thanks for the extra knowledge!
So is the K value the same as Log K? Like when modeling in the GWB, each reaction has Log K values at different temperatures
Thanks! You make the whole thing very understandable.
Your videos are so helpful! Thanks so much! Keep up the good work.
You teach very well. I like your teaching

can you do a video on how to find the equilibrium constant in electrolysis
Thank you soo much sir, this video was beautifully explained. God Bless !!!!

If a reaction has a very low K value, would that mean that the reaction at that temperature is non spontaneous as there are very few products. Also, if the k value is very large, would that mean that the reaction is spontaneous as there are many products?

is it the same if it ask you to writ an equation for equilibrium constant for forward reaction
Wow thanks! That was so helpful!
The illustrations are very helpful for me. It would be helpful if they just called it the equilibrium ratio constant.
Fantastically explained!

how do you know the concentration of the substances that youre putting into the K value equation ? is this information usually given ? (high school chemistry btw)
concentration is always given in the question
What if there are solids or liquid in products and reactants . Do I have to put their concentrations in the equation ?
Thank you sooooo much, great videos
Do you have a note version of this?
So, we can't calculate for K? It would always be given to us?
at 3.37 Is H2O taken into account for this equation? I thought this is only for gases and aqueous ?
You went through very well the meaning of k, but you didn't go through how you got to value eg what did you calculate eg what were the concentrations?
thank you! it feels like you did it all on one breath though!
is k value given to us on the exam because I cannot find it on my periodic table
Thanks a lot ✨ it really helped!!!
Great video, very well explained
how do you know which side is the product and which side is the reactant?
How does temperature affect the equilibrium constant?
Does it matter if the concentrations are in mM as opposed to M?
Damn this sure was helpful thanks brother
this was just beautiful!!!
