7 Questions
What is the fundamental principle that governs the behavior of a system at equilibrium when it is subjected to a stress?
Le Chatelier's Principle
What is the effect of adding a catalyst to a reaction at equilibrium?
No effect
What is the only factor that can affect the equilibrium constant (Kc) of a reaction?
Temperature
What is the condition for which the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction?
Chemical equilibrium
What is the definition of a reversible reaction?
A reaction that can take place in either direction
In a system at equilibrium, how does the rate of the forward reaction compare to the rate of the reverse reaction, and what does this indicate about the system?
The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, indicating that the system is in a state of dynamic balance.
What does Le Chatelier's Principle state about the response of a system at equilibrium to a stress?
The system shifts in such a way as to minimize the effect of the stress.
Test your knowledge of chemical equilibrium, reversible reactions, and Le Chatelier's Principle. Learn how a system at equilibrium responds to stress and how a catalyst affects the reaction. Practice problems and questions to help you master this important concept in chemistry.
