Carbon monoxide in small quantities can cause headaches and dizziness, but larger
concentrations can be fatal. To reverse the effects of the carbon monoxide, pure oxygen
must be introduced to the body. It will react with the carboxyhemoglobin to produce
properly oxygenated hemoglobin, along with carbon monoxide: Hb(CO) 4 (aq) +
4O 2 (g) Hb(O 2 ) 4 (aq) + 4CO (g). The gaseous carbon monoxide thus produced is
dissipated when the person exhales.
The NASA Computer program CEA (Chemical Equilibrium with Applications) calculates
chemical equilibrium compositions and properties of complex mixtures. Applications
include assigned thermodynamic states, theoretical rocket performance, ChapmanJouguet detonations, and shock-tube parameters for incident and reflected shocks. CEA
represents the latest in a number of computer programs that have been developed at the
NASA Lewis (now Glenn) Research Center during the last 45 years. These programs have
changed over the years to include additional techniques. Associated with the program are
independent databases with transport and thermodynamic properties of individual species.
Over 2000 species are contained in the thermodynamic database. The program is written
in ANSI standard FORTRAN by Bonnie J. McBride and Sanford Gordon. It is in wide use
by the aerodynamics and thermodynamics community, with over 2000 copies in
distribution
CEA is a program which calculates chemical equilibrium product concentrations from any
set of reactants and determines thermodynamic and transport properties for the product
mixture. Built-in applications include calculation of theoretical rocket performance,
Chapman-Jouguet detonation parameters, shock tube parameters, and combustion
properties.
Le Chteliers Principle - you discuss how Le Chteliers Principle is
supporting and in explaining the chemical equilibrium
establishments.
( if an external stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will tend
to react in such way as to relieve the applied stress and tries to reestablish the
equilibrium. In chemical reaction terminology, the stress means change in
concentration, pressure, volume or temperature. Le Chateliers principle can be
In an endothermic reaction; increasing temperature shift equilibrium to the right and equilibrium
constant increases.
In an endothermic reaction; increasing temperature shift equilibrium to the left and equilibrium constant
decreases.
If one of the matters in container under constant temperature and pressure is removed or added,
pressure of the system changes. However, change in the concentration is taken into consideration not
pressure.
Temperature can be changed under constant volume. In this situation even if pressure changes, we
consider changes in the temperature while finding equilibrium constant.
In gas reactions, if there is no change in number of moles, then pressure do not effect equilibrium.
Example: Three container given below are in equilibrium with given reactions.
If volumes of them decreased from point I to II, find in which container equilibrium shifts to the right.
Solution:
I. In first container, there is no change in the number of moles. Thus, pressure does not effect this reaction.
II. In second container, there is no change in the total number of moles. But, in this reaction moles of gas in this
reaction decreases. So, equilibrium shifts to the right.
III. As you can see from the reaction, number of moles of decreases. Thus equilibrium shifts to the right.
