Rate If Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
What is le Chatelier’s principle?
A
. If a system at equilibrium is subjected to change, the system will adjust to counteract the change
2
Q
What does equilibrium mean?
A
When the forward and back reactions are equal:
3
Q
When increasing pressure in a reversible reaction, which side will it favour
A
It will favour the reaction that produces fewer moles, the rate of reaction will then change until equilibrium is achieved again
4
Q
Increasing the temperature favours the _ reaction
A
Endothermic
5

Tempurature
Concentration
Surface area
Catalyst
