Le Chatelier

Cards (6)

  • increasing concentration of a reactant or products shift the equilibrium position to the other side
  • decreasing concentration of a reactant or product shifts the equilibrium position to the same side
  • increasing pressure shifts equilibrium to the Side with the fewest gas molecules
  • increase in temperature the equilibrium shifts in the endothermic direction
  • decreasing temperature shifts the equilibrium in the exothermic direction
  • a catalyst speeds up the forward and backwards reaction but doesn't effect the position of equilibrium
