Results

Equilibrium Constant (Keq)

2.5

log₁₀(Keq)0.398
ΔG° at T-2.27 kJ/mol
Equilibrium PositionProduct-favored
How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter product concentrations and coefficients, then reactant concentrations and coefficients.
  2. Review the equilibrium constant K (Kc) for the reaction.
  3. K >> 1 means products are favored at equilibrium; K << 1 means reactants are favored.

Reactant 1 Concentration
Equilibrium concentration of the first reactant
Reactant 1 Coefficient
Stoichiometric coefficient of reactant 1 in the balanced equation
Reactant 2 Concentration
Equilibrium concentration of the second reactant (leave coefficient 0 if unused)
Reactant 2 Coefficient
Stoichiometric coefficient of reactant 2 (set to 0 if only one reactant)
Temperature
Temperature for Gibbs free energy calculation

How this is calculated

Formula

Keq = [Products]^coef / [Reactants]^coef

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Product 1 Concentration = 0.5, Product 1 Coefficient = 1, Product 2 Concentration = 0.5, Product 2 Coefficient = 0 = 9 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Equilibrium Constant
    2.5 = 2.5
  3. Calculate log₁₀
    log₁₀
    0.398 = 0.398
  4. Calculate ΔG° at T
    ΔG° at T
    -2.27 = -2.27
