AP Unit 7: Equilibrium
Find these readings by topic
This earlier reading list remains available with its complete tasks. The current book places these resources in the following topic chapters:
- Solutions and solubility →
Explain what is dissolved, how particle counts represent concentration, and how interactions and later equilibrium conditions determine solubility.
- Chemical equilibrium →
Use dynamic particle reasoning and Q/K bookkeeping to predict equilibrium composition, disturbances and dissolution without confusing amount with rate.
- Acids, bases, and pH →
Follow proton transfer and conjugate-pair equilibrium to explain pH, acid/base strength and pH-dependent dissolution.
- Buffers and titrations →
Identify the species left after reacting amounts, then explain buffer response and titration curves with the model appropriate to each region.
- Entropy, free energy, and chemical change →
Combine matter and energy dispersal with enthalpy and composition to explain chemical favorability, equilibrium and physically connected energy coupling.
Explain a changing mixture with competing molecular events, use Q and K to calculate its composition, and reason about stresses and solubility.
