Van 't Hoff equation

Layer 2 — Chemistryin the thermochemistry subtree

Temperature dependence of the equilibrium constant: d(ln K)/dT = ΔH° / (RT²), where ΔH° is the standard reaction enthalpy. Integrates (with ΔH° assumed T-independent over a narrow range) to ln(K₂/K₁) = −(ΔH°/R)(1/T₂ − 1/T₁). Also appears…
