Formel

Van't Hoff Equation

The van't Hoff equation predicts how the equilibrium constant changes with temperature.

Formula

ln(K2/K1) = (delta_H/R) × (1/T1 - 1/T2)

where R = 8.314 J/(mol·K) is the gas constant and delta_H is the reaction enthalpy.

  • Exothermic reactions (delta_H < 0): K decreases as T increases
  • Endothermic reactions (delta_H > 0): K increases as T increases
  • This is the thermodynamic basis for Le Chatelier's principle regarding temperature.

    Lösungsbeispiel

    An exothermic reaction with K=100 at 298 K, delta_H = -50 kJ/mol. Find K at 350 K.

    1. 01ln(K2/K1) = (-50000/8.314) × (1/298 - 1/350)
    2. 021/298 - 1/350 = 0.003356 - 0.002857 = 0.000499
    3. 03ln(K2/K1) = -6013.4 × 0.000499 = -3.001
    4. 04K2/K1 = exp(-3.001) = 0.0498
    5. 05K2 = 100 × 0.0498 = 4.98

    Häufig Gestellte Fragen

    Why does K decrease for exothermic reactions when heated?

    For exothermic reactions, heat is a product. Raising temperature shifts equilibrium toward reactants (Le Chatelier), decreasing K. The van't Hoff equation quantifies this shift.

    Is delta_H assumed constant over the temperature range?

    Yes, the basic van't Hoff equation assumes delta_H is constant. For large temperature ranges, delta_H may change due to differences in heat capacities, and the extended van't Hoff equation with Kirchhoff's law should be used.

    Can I use this for Kp and Kc?

    Yes. The van't Hoff equation applies to any equilibrium constant form. Kp and Kc are related by Kp = Kc × (RT)^(delta_n), where delta_n is the change in moles of gas.
