Chemical Equilibrium and Le Chatelier’s Principle

For Teachers 9th - Higher Ed Standards
Henri-Louis Le Chatelier wrote many papers throughout his 85-year life, but he is remembered for one of his earliest discoveries, now known as Le Chatelier's Principle. The final lesson in an 11-part series encourages young chemists to...

Equilibrium and Le Chatelier’s Principle

For Teachers 9th - 12th
The best part of learning about equilibrium is that nothing changes. Young chemists observe four demonstrations during this activity: equilibrium in a saturated solution, equilibrium with an acid-base indicator, equilibrium with cobalt...
