Chapter Name : Equilibrium
Sub Topic Code : 102_11_07_09_01
Topic Name : Factors Affecting Equilibria
Sub Topic Name : Effect Of Concentration Change
Introduction

• “When the concentration of any of the reactants or products in a reaction at equilibrium is changed, the composition of the equilibrium mixture changes so as to minimize the effect of concentration changes”.

Pre-Requisites:

Reaction, equilibrium constant, reaction quotient, Gibbs energy

Key Words / FlashCards
Key Words Definitions (pref. in our own words)
Le Chatelier’s principle • Le Chatelier’s principle states that a “change in any of the factors that determine the equilibrium conditions of a system will cause the system to change in such a manner so as to restore the balance.” This is applicable to all physical and chemical equilibria.
