  • What principle was discussed in the last video?
    Le Chatelier's principle
  • What does Le Chatelier's principle state?
    The system responds to counteract changes
  • What reaction is being analyzed in the video?
    The formation of n2o4 from no2
  • What type of reaction is the forward reaction in the discussed reaction?
    Exothermic
  • What happens to energy during the forward reaction?
    Energy is released
  • What is the nature of the reverse reaction in this case?
    Endothermic
  • What occurs when the reverse reaction takes place?
    Energy is taken in
  • What happens to the equilibrium if the temperature is increased?
    The equilibrium shifts to the left
  • Why does the equilibrium shift to the left when temperature increases?
    To reduce the temperature
  • What happens to the amount of no2 when temperature increases?
    It increases
  • What happens to the amount of n2o4 when temperature increases?
    It decreases
  • What happens to the equilibrium if the temperature is decreased?
    The equilibrium shifts to the right
  • Why does the equilibrium shift to the right when temperature decreases?
    To increase the temperature
  • What happens to the amount of n2o4 when temperature decreases?
    It increases
  • What happens to the amount of no2 when temperature decreases?
    It decreases
  • What are the effects of changing temperature on reversible reactions at equilibrium?
    • Increasing temperature shifts equilibrium left
    • Decreasing temperature shifts equilibrium right
    • Forward reaction is exothermic; reverse is endothermic
