lechatelier's principle : In chemistry, Le Chatelier's Principle, also called the Le Chatelier-Braun principle, can be used to predict the effect of a change in conditions on a chemical equilibrium. The principle is named after Henry Louis Le Chatelier and Karl Ferdinand Braun who discovered it independently. It can be summarized as: This principle has a variety of names, depending upon the discipline using it. See for example Lenz's law and homeostasis. It is common to take Le Chatelier's principle to be a more general observation, roughly stated: In chemistry, the principle is used to manipulate the outcomes of reversible reactions, often to increase the yield of reactions. In pharmacology, the binding of ligands to the receptor may shift the equilibrium according to Le Chatelier's principle thereby explaining the diverse phenomena of receptor activation and desensitization. In economics, the principle has been generalized to help explain the price equilibrium of efficient economic systems....   More from Wikipedia
lechatelier's principle : Henry Louis Le Chatelier (8 October 1850 - 17 September 1936) was an influential French/Italian chemist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is most famous for devising Le Chatelier's principle, used by chemists to predict the effect of a change in conditions on a chemical equilibrium...   More from Wikipedia
Le-Chatelier's Principle
If a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in concentration, temperature or pressure, the equilibrium readjusts itself to counteract the effect of the applied chang..
Changing the Position of Equilibrium
Changing the Position of Equilibrium - A reversible reaction attains equilibrium when the opposing reactions occur at an equal rate. Therefore, if a reaction at equilibrium is subjected to some change it changes the rate of one reaction more than the other. By changing the concentration, temperatur..
  Le Chatelier's Principle regarding the "stressing" of reactions in equilibrium
  It is a very easy way to demonstrate the Le Chatelier principle regarding to pressure. Pay attention in the opportunity to approach the Beer law in the exact moment the guy compress the system.
