LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  • Explain the factors that affect the rate of a reaction (temperature, concentration, particle size and presence of a catalyst).
  • Explain the conditions of a system at equilibrium.
  • Infer the shift in equilibrium when a stress is applied to a chemical system (Le Chatelier’s Principle).
