EQUILIBRIUM
-
demonstrate knowledge and understanding that many chemical reactions are reversible and the direction of a reversible reaction can be changed by altering the reaction conditions;
-
demonstrate knowledge and understanding that dynamic equilibrium occurs in a closed system when the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal and the amounts of reactants and products remain constant;
3. state Le Châtelier's Principle and use it to predict the qualitative effects of changes of temperature, pressure and concentration on the position of equilibrium for a closed homogeneous system;
4. describe the Haber process as a reversible reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia, and describe and explain the conditions used and the trade-off between the rate of production and the position of equilibrium; and
