Title: thermodynamic and stoichiometric stability constant
Post by: Sona on April 24, 2017, 10:59:05 PM

Differentiate between thermodynamic
and stoichiometric stability constant.
Under which condition the two will be
identical?

What is stouchiometric stability constant? Are they asking about the difference between thermodynamic and kinetic stability? Then also when are they identical? Is it like the order of the reaction, i.e when it is a one step mechanism then order equals to the stoitiometry?

Please help

Haven't seen the term in ages. Stoichiometric stability constant uses concentrations instead of activities.
