Homogeneous vs. Heterogeneous Equilibria
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A homogeneous equilibrium has every species in one phase; a heterogeneous equilibrium spans phases, and its expression omits pure solids and pure liquids entirely.
Show
For CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g), K = [CO2], since the two solids' concentrations are constant and folded into K.
Watch for
Including a pure solid or liquid's "concentration" in the expression is a common construction error.
