Le Chatelier’s Principle
“If a system in equilibrium is subjected to a stress, a change that will offset the stress will
occur in the system.”
Le Chatelier’s Principle
“If a ‘stress’ is applied to a system in equilibrium,
the equilibrium condition is upset; a net reaction occurs in that direction
which tends to relieve the ‘stress,’ and a new equilibrium is obtained.”
