Study Notes
Chemical Equilibrium
- A necessary condition for chemical equilibrium is not reached when the reaction rates are not equal and opposite.
Effect of Concentration Changes
- Increasing the concentration of a reactant in a reversible reaction at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium to the right, favoring the forward reaction.
- Increasing the concentration of a product in a reversible reaction at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium to the left, favoring the reverse reaction.
Effect of Pressure Changes
- The yield of the reaction is affected by changes in pressure in a reversible reaction at equilibrium.
Le Chatelier's Principle
- Le Chatelier's principle states that when a system in equilibrium is subjected to a change, the equilibrium will shift in a direction that tends to counteract the change.
