Understanding Homogenous Chemical Equilibrium
Homogenous chemical equilibrium occurs when reactants and products are in the same phase. This equilibrium remains independent of the volume of the reaction mixture. The concept is illustrated through the example of the Hydrogen-Iodide system and a generic reaction A + B --> 2C. Partial pressure plays a crucial role in understanding this equilibrium state.
