"Quantitative
effect of temperature on Equilibrium Constant by using Van't Hoff Equation"
Use the following equation to draw the relationship between temperature and equilibrium constant;
This equation (vi) is called Van’t Hoff
equation or Van’t Hoff isochore. ΔH0 is the standard enthalpy change
of chemical reaction. Right side of the reaction is the rate of change of
equilibrium constant with respect to temperature. It means when temperature
changes then equilibrium constant also changes. This rate of change depends on
the enthalpy change of chemical reaction
Here, A is constant. According to this
equation Value of Kp also increases, if ΔH0 is positive.
If ΔH0 is negative, then, increase of temperature, decreases the Kp
value.
