When the reaction is written as above the equilibrium constant, Keq, is an "association constant", Ka. When the equation is written in the reverse orientation, the equilibrium constant, Keq, is a "dissociation constant", Kd.
The A-B Bond Energy is ΔG° (Δ is the Greek letter meaning "change",) and the relationship between ΔG° and the equilibrium constant, Keq, is: ΔG° = -R T ln Keq
R is the Gas Constant of 1.987 cal/degree-mole T is the Temperature in Kelvin (= °C + 273) RT = 592 cal/mole at 25 °C
Solving the above for Keq: Keq = exp(-ΔG°/RT)
The equilibrium is between the two molecules A, B and the molecule AB, in which A and B are held together by the bond(s) chosen above. The display shows the number (rounded to the nearest integer) of molecules of AB which are present for each molecule of A (or of B, since [A] = [B].)
