le chatelier-braun principle

• Principe de chimie selon lequel si un équilibre dynamique est perturbé par une modification des conditions (telles que la concentration, la température ou la pression), le système tendra à s'opposer partiellement à ce changement et à établir un nouvel équilibre.

A principle in chemistry stating that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions (such as concentration, temperature, or pressure), the system will adjust to partially counteract the change and restore a new equilibrium.

   A principle in chemistry stating that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the system will adjust to partially counteract the change and restore a new equilibrium.

   principe de Le Chatelier

   • According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the temperature of an exothermic reaction shifts the equilibrium to the left.
   • Adding more reactant to a system at equilibrium will cause the system to shift towards the products, as predicted by Le Chatelier's principle.
   • The principle explains why increasing pressure on a gaseous reaction favors the side with fewer gas molecules.
