equilibrium constant (K)
|
the value obtained when equilibrium concentrations are substituted into the reaction quotient
|
|
law of chemical equilibrium
(law of mass action) |
the law stating that when a system reaches equilibrium at a given temperature, the ratio of quantities that make up the reaction quotient has a constant numerical value
|
|
reaction quotient (Q)
|
a ratio of terms for a given reaction consisting of product concentrations multiplied together and divided by reactant concentrations multiplied together, each raised to their coefficient. the value of Q changes until the system reaches equilibrium at which point it equals K
|
|
Le Chatelier's Principle
|
a principle stating that if a system in a state of equilibrium is disturbed, it will undergo a change that shifts its equilibrium position in a direction that reduces the effect of the disturbance
