CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM 

      Equilibrium is the next topic in physical chemistry and consists
      of both chemical and ionic equilibrium. Questions in this 
      chapter are generally easy in iit jee but most students find
      ionic equilibrium challenging. I hope to cover all models of 
      problems on both these chapters.

      Chemical Equilibrium:

      







       Le Chatelier 's principle :

       1. Increase in concentration of reactants moves the reaction
           forward. ( not for solids)
     
      2. Increase in pressure moves in direction of lesser no of moles
           of gas.
  
      3. Addition of inert gas at constant volume - No change.

      4. Addition of inert gas at constant pressure moves the reaction
          in direction of greater number of  moles.

      5. In the ice water equilibrium, melting point decreases with
          increase in pressure.
    
      6. With increase in temperature , equilibrium constant of an
          endothermic reaction increases. The opposite is true for
          an exothermic reaction.

      NOTE:  Solubility of NaOH increases with temperature
                    although dissolution is an exothermic process.
