Law of mass action (Q=K) Info
Go to ActivityDescription
Chemical equilibrium systems obey the law of mass action. This law states that the reaction quotient, Q, will be equal to a constant when a system reaches chemical equilibrium. This tutorial explains the law of mass action.
Resource Type | Tutorial ChemCollective tutorials walk students through solving chemistry problems movies, text, and interactive tutors. Because the hints given by these tutors ultimately provide the solution to the problem, they are similar to worked examples in a textbook. Currently, we have tutorials covering concepts in stoichiometry, buffers, and equilibrium. |
