What does Le Chatelier's Principle predict when stress is applied to a system in equilibrium?

Equilibrium shifts to reduce the stress

If reactant concentration increases in equilibrium, which reaction is favoured?

Forwards reaction

What happens when product concentration decreases in an equilibrium system?

Forwards reaction is favoured

For N2(g)+3H2(g)ightleftharpoons2NH3(g)N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) ightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) (ΔH = -92 kJ), what happens if temperature increases?

Reverse reaction favoured, NH₃ decreases

When pressure increases on N2(g)+3H2(g)ightleftharpoons2NH3(g)N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) ightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g), which direction shifts?

Right (4 gas molecules → 2 molecules)

What effect does a catalyst have on the equilibrium position?

No effect on equilibrium position

Which single factor changes the value of the equilibrium constant Kc?

Temperature

For 2AB(g)ightleftharpoons2A(g)+B2(g)2AB(g) ightleftharpoons 2A(g) + B_2(g) (ΔH = 26 kJ), what happens if temp decreases?

Reverse reaction favoured (exothermic)

Adding NaCl to CoCl42−+6H2OightleftharpoonsCo(H2O)62++4Cl−CoCl_4^{2-} + 6H_2O ightleftharpoons Co(H_2O)_6^{2+} + 4Cl^- causes what shift?

Left (common-ion effect, more blue)

In 2SO2(g)+O2(g)ightleftharpoons2SO3(g)2SO_2(g) + O_2(g) ightleftharpoons 2SO_3(g), how many reactant vs product gas molecules?

3 reactant molecules, 2 product molecules
