Equilibrium: Crash Course Chemistry

The video explores the concept of balance in life and science, focusing on chemical equilibrium. It explains how chemical reactions can reach equilibrium, where forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate. The Haber process is used as an example to illustrate equilibrium dynamics and Le Chatelier's principle, which describes how systems at equilibrium respond to changes in concentration, pressure, and temperature. The video concludes with a demonstration of equilibrium using cobalt ions, highlighting the dynamic nature of chemical reactions.

In what ways can chemical equilibria be disturbed, and what are the consequences?

Discuss the impact of pressure changes on gas reactions at equilibrium.

What role does temperature play in shifting chemical equilibria?
