Chapter 10 equilibrium

Cards (5)

  • Define dynamic equilibrium
    The rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of the backwards reaction in a closed system where the concentration of reactants and products remain the same.
  • State Le Chateliers principle
    States that when a system that is in dynamic equilibrium is subject to change equilibrium shifts to minimise the change.
  • If Kc has a value less than one where is the position of equilibrium?
    Closer to the reactants
  • If Kc has a value more than one where is the position of equilibrium?
    Closer to the products
  • When does Kc change
    Only with a change of temperature
