Document Summary

Experiment 7: le ch telier"s principle and chemical equilibrium. The purpose of this experiment was to observe reaction reversibility and equilibrium by changing the concentration of certain reactants and products to force a shift in equilibrium. First, a methyl orange indicator was used to observe the changes in equilibrium by monitoring shifts in color. When 6 m hydrochloric acid (hcl) was added, the color of the solution changed from yellow to red, indicating that the equilibrium shifted left. This occurred due to the increase in h+ ions with the addition of aqueous hcl. Contrastingly, when 6 m sodium hydroxide (naoh) was added to the same test tube, the solution changed from red back to yellow, indicating a rightward shift in equilibrium. This change occurred due to the decrease of h+ ions, caused by the oh- ions from. Next, the same process was repeated for a 0. 1% phenolphthalein indicator with the same chemical formula as shown above.
