2
Q
What is an endothermic reaction

3
Q
What is a dynamic equilibrium
A
When the rate of forward (r) is equal to the rate of reverse (r) and [concentration] of substances remain constant BUT not equal
4
Q
What factors affect the position of equilibrium
A
. Temperature
. Concentration
. Pressure
(. Catalyst - doesn’t change the position of equilibrium just gets to the equilibrium)

A
The system will try to change it back
