Module 5 | Equilibrium and acid reactions
Content 1: Static and dynamic equilibrium
Lesson 1 | Reversibility of chemical reactions
-
conduct practical investigations to analyse the reversibility of chemical reactions, for example:
– cobalt(II) chloride hydrated and dehydrated
– iron(III) nitrate and potassium thiocyanate
– burning magnesium
– burning steel wool (ACSCH090)
Lesson 2 | Static and dynamic equilibrium
-
model static and dynamic equilibrium and analyse the differences between open and closed systems (ACSCH079, ACSCH091)
Lesson 3 | Non-equilibrium systems
-
analyse examples of non-equilibrium systems in terms of the effect of entropy and enthalpy, for example:
– combustion reactions
– photosynthesis
Lesson 4 | Relationship between collision theory and reaction rate
-
investigate the relationship between collision theory and reaction rate in order to analyse chemical equilibrium reactions (ACSCH070, ACSCH094)
