Chemical equilibrium | The point at which both the forward and reverse reactions in a chemical equation have equal reaction rates: When this occurs, the amount of each substance in the chemical reaction will not change, despite the fact that both reactions still proceed. |
Equilibrium constant | K= [C]c[D]d/[A]a[B]b |
When K is large, the equilibrium is weighted toward the ________ side of the equation | products |
When K is small, the equilibrium is weighted toward the _______ side of the equation | reactants |
When K is near unity, the equilibrium is __________ between reactants and the products | balanced |
When a _______ appears in a chemical equilibrium, it is not included in Equation 15.2 | solid |
When a ______ appears in a chemical equation, we do not include it in Equation 15.2. This applies only to the _______ phase; it does not apply to the aqueous phase. | liquid |
Le Chatelier's Principle | When a stress (such as a change in concentration, pressure, or temperature) is applied to an equilibrium, the reaction will shift in a way that relieves the stress and restores equilibrium. |
Le Chatelier's principles ignores _______ and _______ as a source of stress to the equilibrium. | solids and liquids |
