Experiment 15: Shifting Equilibrium
Equilibrium rate of forward reaction = rate of backward reaction
Le Chatelier Principle used to make qualitative predictions on an equilibrium condition
o Describes how an equilibrium shifts if disturbed by adding/removing reactants or by
changing P, V, T
Backward favoured when more H+
Forward favoured by more OH-

Le Chateliers Principle
o A+B -> C+D
o A+B -> C + 100kJ favours backward
o A+B -> C 100kj favours forward
Experiment: Chromatography
Paper Chromatography technique used to separate pigments in a substance based on
their solubility (adsorption/polarity)
Mobile Phase moving (1% NaCl Solution)
Stationary Phase stationary (H2O adsorbed by the cellulose of the filter paper)
Rf Value
Retention factor = distance travelled by solute A / distance travelled by solvent
2 Types of Chromatography
o Planar Chrom. ex. Paper & Thin-layer chromatography
o Column Chrom. ex. Gas chrom., liquid chrom., HPLC, IEC, GFC, etc.
2 Kinds of Chromatography based on Polarity
o Normal Phase liquid chromatography -> Stationary P. (Polar) Mobile P. (Nonpolar)
o Reversed Phase liquid chromatography -> SP (Nonpolar) MP (Polar)
