Principles of Chemical Equilibrium

Question 1

explain the concept of
dynamic equilibrium;
Consider examples of static
and dynamic equilibrium.
Refer to physical and
chemical processes.

Question 2

state the characteristics
of a system in dynamic
equilibrium;

Question 3

define the terms Kc and Kp;

Question 4

state Le Chatelier’s
principle;

Question 5

apply Le Chatelier’s
principle to explain the
effects of changes in
temperature, concentration
and pressure on a system in
equilibrium; and,

Include reference to the
characteristics of a system
in dynamic equilibrium.

Question 6

interpret how changes in
concentration, pressure,
temperature or the
presence of a catalyst may
affect the value of the
equilibrium constant.
Include references to the
Haber process and the
Contact process.
