According to Le Chatelier's principle what would happen to a system at equilibrium if more of one compound in a reaction were added?

Adding more of a compound to a system at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium towards the products if the added compound is a reactant, and towards the reactants if the added compound is a product. This is to counteract the change and re-establish equilibrium.


What happens when reactant is added to a system at equilibrium?

The equilibrium of the system will be upset.


How does a system at equilibrium respond to the addition of more reactant or Product?

Le Chetalier's Principle states "If to a system in equilibrium, a change is applied, the system will react to tend to negate that change" - or the substance of that statement. So if you add product, the system will tend to go to the reverse reaction and produce more reactant. Vice Versa. If more reactant is added, the system reacts to make more product to restore equilibrium.


What does Le Châtelier's principle say about upsetting a system at equilibrium?

When a change is imposed on a system at equilibrium, the "position" of the equilibrium shifts in a direction that reduces the effects of that change. For example, if a reactant or product is added, the system shifts AWAY FROM that added component to use the excess up. If heat is added, the system shifts AWAY FROM that added energy energy to use the excess up. If the pressure on a system is increased, the system shifts toward the side with fewer gas molecules.


What happens when more product is added to a system in equilibrium?

More Reactants will form!!

If the added substance is a reactant, the equilibrium shifts toward products. If it is a product, it moves towards reactants.

How does an equilibrium reaction respond to the addiof extra reactant?

The concentration or activity of the product(s) will increase, and if there is at least one other reactant than the added one that is required for the completion of the reaction, the concentration of such an unadded reactant will decrease. (If there were no available unadded reactant, the reaction would not technically have been in equilibrium at the start, even though it may have reached a steady state that can persist for a long time in the absence of changed conditions.)
