Chemistry Topic

Chemical Equilibrium

Explore how reversible reactions reach a dynamic balance between forward and reverse processes. Understand how concentration, temperature, and pressure shift that balance.

4 Reference

Key Concepts

K = [products] / [reactants] at equilibrium
Q < K: reaction shifts forward
Q > K: reaction shifts backward
Le Chatelier: system opposes stress
ICE table: Initial, Change, Equilibrium
