Purpose: To show temperature effects on reactions and Le Chatelier’s principle.
Materials: 2 test tubes, 2 eyedroppers, 2 beakers, 2 small cups, Clear ammonia solution, White Vinegar, Flame or stove, Pot, Water, Ice, a few leaves of red cabbage, and safety goggles.
Question: How does equilibrium work with respect to temperature and concentration?
Hypothesis: Depending on whether the reaction is endo-thermic or exothermic the equilibrium will shift to one side, this is also true for increasing or decreasing pressure (which affects the concentration).
Background: Henry Louis Le Chatelier was a renowned French chemist. Born on October 8, 1850, Henry was a significant man due to his famous principle, Le Chatelier’s principle,
