Chemical Equilibria
reactant A→B product
• Two-state equilibria include: chemical isomerization; the folding of a protein from an unfolded to folded state
• The equilibrium constant K is the ratio of numbers of particles in each of the two states at equilibrium. K = NB/NA
• The quantity that predicts the chemical equilibria is the chemical potential
• A major goal in chemistry is to predict the equilibria of chemical reactions, including the relative amounts of the reactants and products from their atomic masses and structure properties.

Equilibria Condition
dG = −SdT +Vdp+µAdNA +µBdNB
• At constant T and P:
• Consider the Gibbs free energy of the system:
dG = µAdNA +µBdNB = 0
• Every molecule is in either state A or B:
NA + NB = Ntotal = constant dNA + dNB = 0 dNB = −dNA
• Condition for equilibria:
dG = µAdNA −µBdNA = (µA −µB )dNA = 0
µA = µB
Partition Function for Chemical Reactions
q = exp(−εi / kT )i=0
t
∑ = exp(−ε0 / kT )+ exp(−ε1 / kT )+...+ exp(−εt / kT )
• Define a reduced partition function with the ground-state term factored out:
qreduce = exp(ε0 / kT )q
=1+ exp[−(ε1 −ε0 ) / kT ]+ exp[−(ε2 −ε0 ) / kT ]+...+ exp[−(εt −ε0 ) / kT ]
µ = −kT ln( qN)
• Partition function for chemical potential
µA = −kT ln(qANA
) µB = −kT ln(qBNB
)
• From condition for equilibria: µA = µBqANA
=qBNB
K =NB
NA

=qreduce,B exp(−ε0,B / kT )qreduce,A exp(−ε0,A / kT )
=qreduce,Bqreduce,A
exp[−(ε0,B −ε0,A ) / kT ]
• The above equation gives a way to compute K from the atomic properties of A and B through their partition functions.
• Takes no account of the interactions of one molecule with another, it applies only to isolated particles such as those in the gas phase.
More Complex Equilibria
aA+bB→ cCK
• a, b and c indicate the stoichiometries of species A, B and C.
• At constant T and P:
• The equilibrium is now subject to two stoichiometric constraints:
dG = µAdNA +µBdNB +µCdNC = 0
NA

c= constant NB
b+NC
c= constant
dNA = −acdNC
dNB = −bcdNC
dG = −acµAdNC −
bcµBdNC +µCdNC = 0 −
acµA −
bcµB +µC = 0
cµC = aµA + bµB• Condition for equilibria:
c[−kT ln( qCNC
)]= a[−kT ln( qANA
)]+ b[−kT ln( qBNB
)]
( qCNC
)c = ( qANA
)a ( qBNB
)b
• To express the relative numbers of particles of each species present at equilibrium, a natural definition of the equilibrium constant K arises from rearranging the above equation.

Finding Ground-State Energies
• To define the ground state energies further, we must resolve a matter of the vibrational ground state.
• Vibrational energies: εvib = (n+12)hν
n is the quantum number, n = 0, 1, 2, 3 … ν = (1 / 2π )(ks /m)
1/2is the vibrational frequency of the harmonic oscillator

zero-point state with energy (1/2) hν
dissociated state with energy
Define Ground-State energy as: ε 0= ε (well-bottom state) −ε(dissociated state)

D = ε(dissociated state) −ε(zero-point state) = εdis − (1 / 2)hν
D = −ε0 − (1 / 2)hν

• Rotation part contributes most, specially, the change in rotational symmetry is the main contributor to this equilibrium. The reaction is driven by the gain in entropy due to the rotational asymmetry of the products.
Pressure-Based Equilibrium Constants
• Because pressures are easier to measure than particle numbers for gases, it is often more convenient to use equilibrium constants Kp based on pressures rather than equilibrium constant K based on the particle numbers

Chemical Potentials in terms of Partial Pressures
µ = −kT ln( qN) = −kT ln( q
pV / kT) = kT ln( p
p0int) = µ 0 + kT ln p
• Here p0int =qkTV
µ 0 = −kT ln(qkTV)
• It divides the chemical potential into a part that depends on pressure kTlnp, and a part that does not µ0
• µ0 is called the standard-state chemical potential, which is depend on temperature
Le Chatelier’s Principle
• Any perturbation away from a stable equilibrium state must increase the free energy of the system.
• The system will respond by moving back toward the state of equilibrium.
A→BK
• Suppose a fluctuation changes the number of B molecules by an amount dNB.
dG = (µB −µA )dNB
• Define a reaction coordinate , the factional degree to which the system has proceeded to B.
• The total number of particles is fixed: , so
ζ = NB / (NA + NB )
NA + NB = N NB = Nζ dNB = Ndζ
dG = (µB −µA )Ndζ• To move toward equilibrium, dG ≤ 0, so , must have opposite signs. (µB −µA ) dζ• If , then the direct toward equilibrium is < 0, NB will decrease. • Le Chatelier’s principle refers to the tendency of system to return to equilibrium by
moving in a direction opposite to that caused by an external pertuibation
µB > µA dζ
Temperature Dependence of Equilibrium
• Measure K(T) at different temperatures, learn the enthalpy and entropy of the reaction, which is useful for constructing or testing microscopic models.
A→BK
• At constant T and P, the condition for equilibrium is µA = µB
• The pressure based equilibrium constant is Kp =pBpA

• Water is more dissociated at higher temperatures
• F o r d i s s o c i a t i o n , Δh 0 > 0 , i s t h e characteristic of bond-breaking processes
• The enthalpy change is positive, so dissociation must be driven by entropy
• The plot illustrates a common feature: they are often linear, so Δh0 is independent of temperature

k( 1T2−1T1)
• Can be used to find how Kp depends on temperature if know Δh0 or determine Δh0 if Kp(T) is measured
• Example: calculate enthalpy of dissociation of water: At T = 1500K, lnKp = -13.147 ; at T = 2257 K, lnKp = -6.4
Δh0 = −R ln(Kp(T2 )Kp(T1)
) / ( 1T2−1T1) = −8.1314JK −1mol−1 −13.1− (−6.4)

At T = 1500K:
Δµ 0 = −RT lnKp = −(8.1314JK−1mol−1)(1500K )(−13.147) =164kJ /mol
Δs0 = Δh0 −Δµ 0
T=(249−164)kJ /mol

Equilibrium between Liquid and Gas
• Consider a system of liquid in equilibrium with its vapor at constant T and P • Free energy depends only on the chemical potentials and numbers of particles in
the two phase
dG = −SdT +Vdp+µvdNv +µldNl = µvdNv +µldNl
• If total number of molecules is conversed:
Nv + Nl = Ntotal = cons tan t
dNv + dNl = dNtotal = 0 dNv = −dNl
dG = (µv −µl )dNv
• The condition for equilibrium is dG = 0 , so
µv = µl
Lattice Model
• How to compute • Model liquid as a lattice of particles of a single type, liquid particles occupied the
crystalline lattice, with every site occupied by one particle • The translational entropy of the lattice particles is zero, since pairs of particles
trade positions, the rearrangement can’t be distinguished, S = 0 • Two particles of type A in terms of ‘bond’ energy: wAA < 0
• This energy applies to every pair of particles that occupy neighboring lattice sites • Consider the liquid system has total of N particle, each particle has z nearest
neighbors (coordinate number of lattice)

Lattice Model – Vapor Pressure
µv = kT ln(pp0int)• Recall:
• Equilibrium condition: kT ln(pp0int) = zwAA
2
p = p0int exp(zwAA
2kT)
• This describes the vapor pressure P of the molecule A escape the liquid • The vapor pressure is a measure of the density of vapor-phase molecule • As the AA bonds are made stronger, wAA becomes more negative, P decreases
because molecule prefer to bond together in the liquid rather than to escape to the vapor phase
• If wAA is fixed, increasing the temperature increases the vapor pressure
Clapeyron Equation
• In last example, we see at fixed T and P, the equilibrium between liquid and vapor
• Two points (P1,T1) and (P2,T2) at which the liquid and vapor are in equilibrium
µv (T2, p2 ) = µv (T1, p1)+ dµv (T, p)
µv (T2, p2 ) = µl (T2, p2 )• The chemical potential at point 2 involves a small perturbation from point 1
µv (T1, p1) = µl (T1, p1)
µl (T2, p2 ) = µl (T1, p1)+ dµl (T, p)
dµv (T, p) = dµl (T, p)
• Total differential equation
dµ(T, p) = (∂µ∂T)p,N dT + (
∂µ∂p)T ,N dp
• Based on Maxwell relation
(∂µ∂T)p,N = −(
∂S∂N)T ,p = −s (∂µ
∂p)T ,N = (
∂V∂N)T ,p = v
dµv = −svdT + vvdp = dµl = −sldT + vldp
• Rearrange dpdT

Δs = sv − slΔv = vv − vl

T2∫ ln p2p1= −
ΔhR( 1T2−1T1)
• Vapor pressure of benzene versus 1/T
• lnp is linearly proportional to 1/T, and therefore Δh is independence of T and p
• Δh can be obtained from slope and used to predict a boiling point with (p2,T2) if another boiling point (p1, T1) is known
Example: Apply of Clausius-Clapeyron Equation
• If water boils at T1 = 373 K and P1 = 1 atm. At a high altitude where P2 = ½ atm, what is the boiling temperature T2 ? Δh = 40.66 kJ/mol

T2 = 354K = 81°C• Water boils at lower temperature at higher altitudes
Mixture: Entropy
• Suppose there are NA molecules of species A, and NB molecules of species B. Together, they completely fill a lattice of N lattice sites
N = NA + NB
• The multiplicity of states is the number of spatial arrangements of the molecules:
W =N!
NA!NB! S = k lnW
SAB = k ln(N!
NA!NB!) = k(NA lnN + NB lnN − NA lnNA − NB lnNB )
• Define the mole fraction: xA = NA / N xB = NB / N
SAB = −k(NA ln xA + NB ln xB )• To simplify further: let x = xA, so 1-x = xB
SAB / NK = −x ln x − (1− x)ln(1− x)
Mixture: Energy
• In the lattice model, the total energy is the sum of the noncovalent bonds (or contact) of all the pairs of nearest neighbors
• There are three possible types noncovalent bonds in the mixture: AA, BB, AB • The total energy of the system:
UAB =mAAwAA +mBBwBB +mABwAB
is the number of AA bonds, mAA is the number of BB bonds, mBB
is the number of AB bonds, mAB
are the corresponding noncovalent interactions wAA wBB wAB,
,
• Each lattice site has z sides, and every contact involves two sides. The total number of sides of type A can be expressed in terms of numbers of contacts:
zNA = 2mAA +mAB
zNB = 2mBB +mAB
mAA =zNA −mAB
2
• Solve the two equation to get and mAA mAB
mBB =zNB −mAB

In this expression, the only unknown is , the number of AB contact, we need to use some approximation to estimate it
mAB
The Mean-Field Approximation
• The mean-field approximation: for any given numbers NA and NB, the particles are mixed as randomly and uniformly as possible.
• Consider a specific site next to an A molecule, based on the approximation, the probability that a B molecule occupy the neighboring site is equal to the probability that any site is occupied by B:
pB =NB
N= xB =1− x
• There are z nearest-neighbor sites for each A molecule, the average number of AB contacts made by that particle A molecule:
zpB = zNB
N• The total number of A molecules is NA, so
