Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated
Concept Introduction:
A reaction is said to be in equilibrium if the rate at which the forward reaction takes place becomes equal to the rate at which the backward reaction takes place. If any of the factors that affect the equilibrium changes, then the reaction shifts in either forward or backward direction so that the equilibrium condition is re-established. According to the Le Chatelier’s principle, the change in concentration, volume, pressure and temperature affects the equilibrium of the reaction.
(b)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated
Concept Introduction:
Refer to concept of part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated
Concept Introduction:
Refer to concept of part (a).
(d)
Interpretation:
The change that occurs in the saturated
Concept Introduction:
Refer to concept of part (a).
