Le Chatelier's Principle

Le Chaltelier's Principle states that if a chemical system at equilibrium is stressed,

• the system will adjust to increase the stress
• the system will adjust to reduce the stress
• the system will not adjust

An exothermic reaction is allowed to reach equilibrium. If heat energy is then removed, the equilibrium will shift

• toward the middle
• toward the reactant side
• toward the product side
