Document Summary
Physical systems evaporation condensation rate of evaporation= rate of condensation (no net change in amount of liquid + gas) > system reached equilibrium only occur in closed system. Concentrations of reactants + products remain constant at equilibrium they are being produced and destroyed at an equal rate. At equilibrium there is no change in macroscopic properties. Equilibrium can be reached from either direction observable properties e. g. color + density. These don"t change as they depend on the concentrations of the components of the mixture. Same equilibrium mixture will result under the same conditions, no matter whether the reaction is started with all reactions, all products, or a mixture of both. conc of reactant + product are constant at equilibrium but not equal. Equilibrium position: proportion of reactant + product in equilibrium mixture predominantly products- lie to the right predominantly reactants- lie to the left.
