A Qualitative Interpretation of the Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium

question 36

Multiple Choice

A qualitative interpretation of the effect of temperature on equilibrium views heat as a reactant or product and explains shifts in equilibrium with temperature as responses to stress to the equilibrium. How does van't Hoff's equation refine this view?

• A) It incorporates the heat into an ICE table calculation.
• B) It accounts for the shift in terms of the temperature dependence of K.
• C) It uses stoichiometry to interpret heat quantitatively as a reactant or product.
• D) It uses a statistical-mechanical interpretation of heat.
• E) It enables Q to be calculated from  H° and  S°.
