le chatelier-braun principle

• Princípio da química segundo o qual, quando um sistema em equilíbrio é perturbado por uma mudança nas condições (como concentração, temperatura ou pressão), o sistema tende a se ajustar de modo a contrariar parcialmente essa mudança e estabelecer um novo equilíbrio.

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.

   Princípio 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.
