Well, the most famous example is the Haber Process. Normally the equation is

N+3H<->NH3. The problem is that it is exothermic, and the more ammonia you make the hotter it gets. If you stress the equation to the right by increasing pressure. Fritz Haber perfected this process although it took a while to get it right, as he basically had very hot and very pressurized cookers for making ammonia. This was great for helping feed the world but this actually happened in 1914 during WWI. Fritz Haber used it to make cheap gunpowder and explosives for Germany as they were under allied blockade. His wife hated him so much for that, that she killed herself. He also created the chlorine gas warfare. Nice guy.

When the wage rate paid to labor is below equilibrium?

When the wage rate paid to labour is below equilibrium wage, then labour is undersupplied. As firms require more labour to maximise their profit, they will slowly raise their wage rate (because revenue from labour &gt; costs) until the equilibrium level is achieved (since no more profit is achieveable at this level).
