Reactant-Favored Reaction
Definition
A reactant-favored reaction is a chemical reaction where the equilibrium lies far to the left, meaning that the reactants are favored and very little product is formed.
Related terms
Equilibrium: This refers to a state in which both reactants and products are present in concentrations which have no further tendency to change with time.
Le Chatelier's Principle: This principle states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing conditions, then the system responds to counteract the change.
Chemical Kinetics: This term refers to study of rates at which reactions occur. It tells us how fast a reaction occurs.
