To minimize the effect of a stress on a system at equilibrium
What is the only factor that affects the equilibrium constant of a reaction?
Temperature of the system
What is the definition of chemical equilibrium?
A state where the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal
What is the result of adding a catalyst to a system that has already reached equilibrium?
The equilibrium constant is unchanged
What is the factor that affects the equilibrium constant in a reaction?
Temperature of the system
What is the significance of the equation 𝑚𝐴 + 𝑛𝐵 ⇌ 𝑝𝐶 + 𝑞𝐷 in a reversible reaction?
It represents the chemical equilibrium of the reaction
In a reversible reaction, what is the effect of a stress on the system at equilibrium?
The dynamic balance shifts to minimise the effect of the stress.
What is the state of a reversible reaction when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction?
Chemical equilibrium
Test your knowledge of chemical equilibrium, reversible reactions, and Le Chatelier's Principle, including how a system responds to stress and the impact of catalysts on equilibrium reactions.
