Predict the effect of changing reaction conditions on the equilibrium position using Le Chatelier's principle.
Understand that if a system at equilibrium experiences a change in conditions, the system will respond to counteract that change.
Predict the effect of changing concentration on equilibrium position, noting that increasing a reactant's concentration produces more products, and decreasing a product's concentration consumes more reactants.
Predict the effect of changing temperature on equilibrium, applying the idea that an increase in temperature favors the endothermic direction, while a decrease favors the exothermic direction.
Predict the effect of changing pressure on gaseous equilibria, noting that increased pressure shifts the equilibrium towards the side with fewer molecules, and decreased pressure shifts it towards the side with more molecules.
Interpret given data to predict the effects of concentration, temperature, or pressure changes on a system, and suggest appropriate conditions to maximize the yield of a particular product.
