Chemical Equilibrium Flashcards
1
Q
Reversible reaction
A
One in which the products react to give back the reactants. Ie: the reaction is going in both directions
2
Q
Chemical equilibirum
A
State of dynamic balance in a reversible reaction where the rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of the backward reaction
3
Q
Dynamic state
A
Reactabts are continuously forming products are the product are continuously forming reactants
4
Q
Dynamic equilibrium
A
The rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the backward reactiom
5
Q
Le chateliers principle
A
States that if a stress is applied to a system t equilibrium the system re-adjusts to relieve the stress applied
