Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
For a reversible reaction A + B ⇌ C + D, if the concentration of D is increased, what will happen to the concentration of the other species in the system? Explain in terms of Le Châtelier’s Principle.
💡 Hint: Remember how systems respond to changes!
Consider a reaction that completes in a closed container. If you remove some of the products as they are formed, predict how the rates of the forward and reverse reactions will change and why.
💡 Hint: Think about balancing forces.
