Generation

Le Chatelier's principle states that when a system at equilibrium is disturbed by a change in concentration, temperature, or pressure, the system will shift in whatever direction counteracts that change to re-establish equilibrium. For example, if you add more reactants to an equilibrium mixture, the reaction will shift toward making more products to "use up" the added reactants. Similarly, increasing pressure on a gas-phase equilibrium will favor the side with fewer gas molecules, while increasing temperature favors the endothermic direction. Essentially, the system "fights back" against whatever stress you apply to it.
