What happens to the forward and reverse reactions and the amounts of reactants and products at equilibrium?
The forward and reverse reactions continue and balance each other, so the amounts of reactants and products remain constant.
What does Le Chatelier’s Principle predict when a condition of a system at equilibrium changes?
The equilibrium shifts toward reactants or products in the direction that tends to oppose the change, partially reducing its effect.
