Le Chatliers Principle
2
Subliminal message! Chemistry is great! Chemistry is great!
3
Le Chatliers Principle When an equilibrium is disrupted, the reaction will shift to restore equilibrium.
4
Subliminal message! Chemistry is great! Chemistry is great!
5
Le Chatliers Principle The equilibrium can be affected by: - adding substances – the reaction will shift away from the change. - removing substances – the reaction will shift toward the change.

7
Le Chatliers Principle - temperature – acts like a reactant/product - container size – smaller container will shift toward small number of molecules - Adding inert gasses – no effect
8
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 1) If pressure of A is increased
9
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 1) If pressure of A is increased Reaction will shift right
10
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 2) The temperature of the reaction is increased
11
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 2) The temperature of the reaction is increased Reaction will shift left
12
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 3) A catalyst is added to the system
13
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 3) A catalyst is added to the system No change in the equilibrium
14
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 4) More compound B is steadily added to the reaction chamber
15
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 4) More compound B is steadily added to the reaction chamber The reaction will shift right
16
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 5) An inhibitor is added
17
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 5) An inhibitor is added No shift in equilibrium
18
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 6) Argon gas is added to the reaction chamber
19
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 6) Argon gas is added to the reaction chamber No shift in equilibrium
20
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 7) The container is made smaller

Subliminal message! Wednesdays and fridays at lunch in room 122 Wednesdays and fridays at lunch in room 122
22
Le Chatliers Principle For example: Consider the reaction A + B C H = -453 kJ/mol 7) The container is made smaller the reaction will shift right
