Reversible Reaction — definition?
Reaction proceeding in both directions, reaching equilibrium.
Reversible Reaction — definition?
Reaction proceeding in both directions at equilibrium.
Equilibrium State — role?
Constant concentrations with equal forward and reverse rates.
Equilibrium State — characteristic?
Rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal.
Kc — significance?
Ratio of product to reactant concentrations at equilibrium.
Kc — role?
Ratio of product to reactant concentrations at equilibrium.
Kp — relation to Kc?
Kp = Kc(RT)^{Δn}.
Extent of Reaction — meaning?
Amount a reaction proceeds before reaching equilibrium.
Le Chatelier Principle — purpose?
Predicts how equilibrium shifts with changes.
Effect of Increasing Concentration — on equilibrium?
Shifts to counter the change, re-establishing equilibrium.
