It depends on the question. So if the REACTANTS turning into PRODUCT is an endothermic reaction then adding heat will shift it towards the right(because the reactants require heat to react) BUT if the PRODUCT turning back into the REACTANT is endothermic that means adding heat will shift it to the left (because the products require heat to form back into the original reactants)
Never would I have thought that something that caused me so much pain and turmoil could make complete sense after 8min from a random stranger on the internet..... God speed my friend.....
This is by far the greatest explanation of this principle. Instead of just saying it moves to the left or right, you explained the conceptual reasoning behind it...for me, it makes it a hell of a world of difference. Thanks again, and keep it up!
Just taking a moment to appreciate you and your work. You have literally answered all my questions and relieved all my doubts from the beginning of high school to the end of my university path. I could never thank you enough.
This is so helpful! I've been studying for 2 weeks for my chemistry final and a problem like this appeared in the final packet. You explain chemistry very simple that is easy to follow, thanks!
This video is by far the best and more clear explanation. After watching several videos and becoming even more confused; I now fully understand the concept of equilibrium and what side it favours depending on the change. Thank you
This video is by far the most amazing one I've seen on Le Chatelier's principle. Thank you so much for all the great reasonings and explanations. I was having some issues with the change in temperature part but you made it all very clear to me. Thank you so much sir, you're a great teacher!
English isn't even my mother tongue, but this helped me a lot more than any other video I saw! Your way to explain things is awesome, thank you very much :)
this helped a lot, i have been having A LOT of struggle with my chemistry class this year and this is gonna help me for my test coming up, thank you :)
Thank you for this helpful explanation! I've watched so many other videos, read my textbook on this concept and I didn't fully understand it until now.
more product was produced during equilibrium of the reaction so it needs to shift to reactants to offset the production of products. i know this is a old question but just incase someone else was wondering.
if only my teacher could teach as well as you could, my whole class would have covered the whole curriculum in two weeks - with room to spare! But no .. teachers these days are so lazy and only know to read from the textbook.
Dear Sir, this is my first time to write a comment on any TH-cam video. First of all, I would say I like your method of teaching, knowledgeable, clear and to the point. Secondly, I would like to correct your understanding of adding inert into the system. When we add inerts into reactor at constant system pressure, the partial pressure of reacting species decreases and as a result we get few moles of ammonia on the product side. For reference, I would suggest reading Sandler, S. (2006). Chemical, biochemical, and engineering thermodynamics, chapter 13, pp 720-722. Further, I have also simulated the case study of production of ammonia by adding inert material into the system using a process simulator. My results are in agreement with the book i.e. decrease in formation of ammonia by adding an inert material or dilutent at constant system pressure. Thanks.
If the process is endothermic and you add heat, would it still shift to the left?
No ... to the right.
Endothermic = Heat is required = Heat is a reactant
Adding a reactant = Shift Right.
oh so for exothermic we add heat to the product's side
and for endothermic we add heat to the reactant's side...
Isn't the breakdown of ammonia endothermic and so by increasing the heat the concentration of reactants would increase,shifting the point to the left?
chemistNATE help I still dont understand

Loved the way you said at last "And Best of Luck in your own Le Chatelielic Adventure"
Never would I have thought that something that caused me so much pain and turmoil could make complete sense after 8min from a random stranger on the internet.....
God speed my friend.....
Facts

My chemistry teacher isn't the best at teaching and his 3 days of teaching made no sense but this 8 minute video makes SOO MUCH SENSE !!
Exo-ls everywhere yeet
Just taking a moment to appreciate you and your work. You have literally answered all my questions and relieved all my doubts from the beginning of high school to the end of my university path. I could never thank you enough.
9yrs and still helping, hope you are well. Subscribed to thank you.
The way you added heat like one of the products made the whole thing make sense!! Thank you so much
Treating heat like a product holy hell thank you good sir!
Fucking genius isn't he! I was going to rote learn all the conditions.. thank goodness for him!
Please keep making these videos! Not many chemistry tutorials are clear and easy to follow like your videos. Thank you so much.
This is so helpful! I've been studying for 2 weeks for my chemistry final and a problem like this appeared in the final packet. You explain chemistry very simple that is easy to follow, thanks!
chemistNATE, you are the best!!! Keep doing what you are doing! Also your other vids rock as well. (this is coming from a quantitive analysis student)
This video is by far the best and more clear explanation. After watching several videos and becoming even more confused; I now fully understand the concept of equilibrium and what side it favours depending on the change. Thank you
3:00-3:05 I think it will shift to the left? You said, "right" but thank you for uploading this, it helped a lot! :)
that's what he said 😉 everybody makes mistakes
Wow
Even 9 years later someone is still benefits from this
Thanks much much.
This video is by far the most amazing one I've seen on Le Chatelier's principle. Thank you so much for all the great reasonings and explanations. I was having some issues with the change in temperature part but you made it all very clear to me. Thank you so much sir, you're a great teacher!
Thank you so much for your help, I was struggling with this until I found your teaching. God bless your soul.
Probably the most concise video concerning this subject - helped me out a lot thank you!
English isn't even my mother tongue, but this helped me a lot more than any other video I saw! Your way to explain things is awesome, thank you very much :)
Thanks a lot for this. I fell asleep during chemistry so I didn't get any of it until I watched this video.
I love how you make complicated topics so easy!! Thank you. :)
I literally spent 2 hours trying to understand this and you saved me. Thank you.
you sir, are my Le Chatelier principle hero!!
Thank you so much for this. I was getting so confused with the concept but finally now I have understood.
this helped a lot, i have been having A LOT of struggle with my chemistry class this year and this is gonna help me for my test coming up, thank you :)
This video from 2013 helped me much more than my actual professor ! Thank you so much :)
Thank you for this helpful explanation! I've watched so many other videos, read my textbook on this concept and I didn't fully understand it until now.
You just helped me ace the test. Thank you so much!
Thank you soooooooo much! This has cleared up about a week worth of work...!!!!!!!!
You managed to explain the equilibrium with temperature so well. Thank you!!
He literally just saved me so much time and I really understand it now thank God.
So good -- thank you! I just that *click* when you understand everything and it perfectly fits together! Merci!
God bless your soul
Lol I just noticed your comment on both this video and the Crash Course one. I also used both so I don't fail Chemistry...
Hannah Smith yass we in this together
FFuzzyandfurryF I'm 15 I just haven't changed my profile pic since I was 12 lol
Wow
3:05, you mean shifting to the left. :)
more product was produced during equilibrium of the reaction so it needs to shift to reactants to offset the production of products. i know this is a old question but just incase someone else was wondering.
he meant that you wrote the arrow to the left but you accidentally said right
my god that was so confuseee
man I was so confused >>> LOL
if only my teacher could teach as well as you could, my whole class would have covered the whole curriculum in two weeks - with room to spare! But no .. teachers these days are so lazy and only know to read from the textbook.
+AwakenedMachinist yeah and they keep saying it's easy why won't anyone understand?? this guy helped me understand it in like 8:30 minutes.
you have a sucky professor, luckily there are lots of good professors out there too.
I am facing the same problem, if my teacher taught that well I would be acing all my tests
Atleast your teacher uses the textbook
True...Relatable
Best video ever seen so far!Real lifesaver for visual learners!
The best lecture and the best staff with very good teaching skills
Never learnt such a good chem. class
Appreciated
Perfectly understood. You must be a very experienced teacher.
I am very grateful for your exquisite and easy-to-understand lecture! Thank you!
Thank you so much! This helps A TON!! You are an absolutely amazing teacher!!
Just have to say, thank you so much! It truly helped me understand the whole concept.
Best chemistry teacher EVER. Perfect explanations man!!
Best video out here explaining this concept! Thank you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! you did what my teacher couldnt do in 8 days, in 8 minutes!
That was so smooth..understood everything!!!thanks✌🏻
Your explanation is simple and clear! Thank you again Chemist Nate! :D
Old, but until by now in 2020, this aewsome video is helping me a lot! thanks guy !
Fantastic Video man this saved me a lot of confusion going into my biggest General Chemistry Exam!
Can't believe it was that simple. Thank you so much for this!
learned more from this 8 minute video than listening to my teacher for hours on this....
Im studying for my chem final and i wasnt here for this unit so this is def helpin
You are hands down the best chemistry teacher ever!!!!! I would love chemistry if you were my teacher.
You’re such a good teacher! Thank you for your help :)
