About Le Chatelier's Principle
Le Chatelier's principle predicts how an equilibrium responds when concentration, pressure or temperature changes. Questions apply it to reversible reactions, identify the direction of shift and distinguish genuine equilibrium changes from the effect of a catalyst, which changes the rate of reaching equilibrium but not its position.
