New cards
what principle states that if any of the conditions of a reversible reaction are changed, the system will shift to counteract the change?
Le Chantelier's principle
2
New cards
How does a dynamic equilibrium form?
A reversible reaction takes place in a closed system.
3
New cards
What is a closed system?
A system where neither matter nor energy can enter or leave
4
New cards
What happens when temperature is decreased?
The equilibrium position will shift in the exothermic direction.
5
New cards
What happens if temperature increases?
The equilibrium position will shift in the endothermic direction.
6
New cards
What happens if pressure increases?
The equilibrium position will shift towards the side with fewer moles overall.
7
New cards
What happens if pressure decreases?
The equilibrium position will shift in favour of the reaction that produces a greater number of molecules
