  2. Le Chatelier's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Chatelier's_principle

    When heat is removed and the temperature decreases, the reaction shifts to the left and the flask turns colorless due to an increase in N 2 O 4: again, according to Le Chatelier's principle. The effect of changing the temperature in the equilibrium can be made clear by 1) incorporating heat as either a reactant or a product, and 2) assuming ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common-ion_effect

    Barium iodate, Ba(IO 3) 2, has a solubility product K sp = [Ba 2+][IO 3 −] 2 = 1.57 x 10 −9.Its solubility in pure water is 7.32 x 10 −4 M. However in a solution that is 0.0200 M in barium nitrate, Ba(NO 3) 2, the increase in the common ion barium leads to a decrease in iodate ion concentration.

  4. Contact process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_process

    The contact process is a method of producing sulfuric acid in the high concentrations needed for industrial processes. Platinum was originally used as the catalyst for this reaction; however, because it is susceptible to reacting with arsenic impurities in the sulfur feedstock, vanadium(V) oxide (V 2 O 5) has since been preferred.

  5. Carbonic anhydrase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonic_anhydrase

    Relating the Bohr effect to carbonic anhydrase is simple: carbonic anhydrase speeds up the reaction of carbon dioxide reacting with water to produce hydrogen ions (protons) and bicarbonate ions. To describe equilibrium in the carbonic anhydrase reaction, Le Chatelier's principle is used. Most tissue is more acidic than lung tissue because ...

    Some reactions produce heat and are called exothermic reactions, ... water, air and earth. ... The pressure dependence can be explained with the Le Chatelier's ...

  7. Haber process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haber_process

    Since the reaction is exothermic, the equilibrium of the reaction shifts at lower temperatures to the ammonia side. Furthermore, four volumetric units of the raw materials produce two volumetric units of ammonia. According to Le Chatelier's principle, higher pressure favours ammonia.

  8. Henry Louis Le Chatelier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Louis_Le_Chatelier

    Le Chatelier was born on 8 October 1850 in Paris and was the son of French materials engineer Louis Le Chatelier and Louise Durand. His father was an influential figure who played important roles in the birth of the French aluminium industry, the introduction of the Martin-Siemens processes into the iron and steel industries, and the rise of railway transportation.

  9. Solubility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility

    In liquid water at high temperatures, (e.g. that approaching the critical temperature), the solubility of ionic solutes tends to decrease due to the change of properties and structure of liquid water; the lower dielectric constant results in a less polar solvent and in a change of hydration energy affecting the ΔG of the dissolution reaction.
