Equilibria and Le Chatelier's Principle

Le Chatelier'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

When writing an endothermic reaction, heat energy is stated as a

• product
• catalyst
• reactant
• Spicy Switze

What are the two factors to look for when determining if the reaction is at equilibrium?

• Forward reaction rate is faster than the reverse and concentrations are equal
• Forward and reverse reaction rates are equal and concentration is constant
• Forward and revers reaction rates are equal and concentration is equal
• Forward reaction rate is faster than the reverse and concentration is equal

This symbol indicates that a reaction is ____________

• reversible

• irreversible

When the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction, the system is said to be in

• Chemical Equilibrium

• Chemical Balance

• Stoichiometry

• Chemical Reaction

Define chemical equilibrium.

• A reaction is reversible.
• The concentration of the reactants is equal to the concentration of the products.
• The rate of a forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
• The reaction stops and no further change in concentration occurs.

Which of the following is NOT true at equilibrium?

• The forward and reverse reactions proceed at the same rate.
• The concentrations of reactants and products do not change.
• The concentration of the reactants is equal to the concentration of the products.
• The forward and reverse reactions continue to occur.

The idea that when a system at equilibrium is stressed, it will react to relieve that stress and return to equilibrium is known as:

• Boyle's Law
• Le Chatelier's Principle
• Charles Law
• Switzer's Law
