Abstract:
The drawbacks in interpreting the chemical equilibrium in current general chemistry textbooks were discussed. An easy-understood introduction of chemical isothermoequation of several types of reactions was proposed. Reversible and irreversible reactions, reversible and irreversible processes, and complete and incomplete reactions were distinguished, respectively.
