Equilibrium Constants of Reversible Reactions in Solution

Abstract

We are now in a position to present the existing state of the quantum theory of balanced reactions in solution. We have just examined the part played by conformations in such reactions. Moreover we have demonstrated in Section 1 of Chapter II that, for a given conformation of the substances present, the equilibrium constant depends on six factors:

  1. (a)

    the ratio of the distribution functions;

  2. (b)

    the variation Δε v of the vibration energy of the nuclei at absolute zero;

  3. (c)

    the variation Δε l of the energy of localised bonds;

  4. (d)

    the variation Δε d of the energy of delocalised bonds;

  5. (e)

    the variation Δε n·l of the energy of interaction between unbonded atoms;

  6. (f)

    and the variation Δε s(T) of the solvation energy.
