Introduction Chemical reactions are performed to get a particular product by some chemical process happening in the reactants. In some cases, the product formed is again converted back to the reactant. That is a reverse chemical reaction is taking place. But not all chemical reactions will not undergo such a reverse reaction. The state in which both forward and reverse reaction takes place simultaneously is called equilibrium. The term equilibrium was introduced in the year 1803 by the discovery of scientist Berthollet in which some reactions are moving in the reverse direction. The rates of such chemical reactions are also ... Read More

Introduction Heterogeneous equilibrium is a chemical equilibrium in which all of the reactants and products are in distinct phases. A homogeneous equilibrium exists when all the reactants and products are in the same phase. Chemical equilibrium is defined as the pace at which forward and backward reactions occur. According to the phase of the reactants and products, there are two forms of equilibrium. equilibrium between homogeneity and heterogeneity. When the reactants and products of an equilibrium process come together to form a single phase, whether it be a gas or a liquid, this is known as homogeneous equilibrium. In such ... Read More

Introduction The Common Ion Effect (CIE) is founded on Le Chatelier's Principle, which governs the chemical equilibrium of salts as well as other weak electrolytes including associated ions in solutions. This phenomenon is frequently employed to modify the solubilities of salts with weak electrolytes, as well as to separate salts from liquids. The common-ion effect (CIE) explains the dampening impact on the ionization of one electrolyte when some other electrolyte with a common ion is introduced. The CIE is the phenomenon wherein the solubility of a dispersed electrolyte decreases when some other electrolyte is introduced to the liquid with one ... Read More
