Instructional Ideas
- Follow the video with example problems and have pupils interpret the equilibrium constant that results
- Ask students why they think knowing a reaction's equilibrium constant would be important during an experiment
Classroom Considerations
- The content is simplified for high school-level chemistry classes
- This video is hosted on YouTube
Pros
- Explains equilibrium constants in high school friendly terms while letting learners know that there is more to the topic for future discussion
- Shows sample calculations using a logical approach to obtaining and interpreting the resulting constant
Cons
- None
