Question | Answer |
---|---|
dynamic equilibrium | The point at which the rate of the reverse reaction or process equals the rate of the forward reaction or process |
equilibrium constant(K) | The ratio, at equilibrium, of the concentrations of the products of a reaction raised to their stoichiometric coefficients to the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients |
law of mass action | The relationship between the balanced chemical equation and the expression of the equilibrium constant |
reaction quotient(Qc) | The ratio, at any point in the reaction, of the concentrations of the products of a reaction raised to their stoichio metric coefficients to the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients |
Le Chatelier's principle | The principle stating that when a chemical system at equilibrium is disturbed, the system shifts in a direction that minimizes the disturbance |
