Case 3: The Grayson Chemical Company The Company The Grayson Chemical Co. manufactured industrial chemicals for sale to other industrial companies. The company was about 40 years old and had been run by a stable management under only two presidents. Within the past few years‚ however‚ declining earnings and sales had brought pressure from the board of directors‚ investment bankers‚ and stockholder groups to name a new president. The company had grown increasingly stagnant – although at Grayson

1 Measuring and calculating equilibrium constants Clearly‚ if the concentrations or pressures of all the components of a reaction are known‚ then the value of K can be found by simple substitution. Observing individual concentrations or partial pressures directly may be not always be practical‚ however. If one of the components is colored‚ the extent to which it absorbs light of an appropriate wavelength may serve as an index of its concentration. Pressure measurements are ordinarily able to measure

off a bit more towards a slope of zero (0.084 A/min). This can be explained using Le Chatelier’s principle‚ which states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions‚ the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to reestablish an equilibrium. The initial conditions prior to any change can be viewed as a state of equilibrium because no reaction was occurring and therefore no products were being formed. However‚ once peroxidase was added to hydrogen peroxide‚ oxygen

however‚ introduce asymmetry in production cost or product quality‚ capacity limitation can become obsolete. I derive thresholds as regards the cost and quality differences for the entrant’s choice to voluntarily limit the production capacity in equilibrium. I study a market entry game with price competition and perfectly substitutable products. Limiting the initial capacity (Judo economics) is a plausible entry strategy. I show that under asymmetry in production cost or product quality‚ capacity

Equilibrium Kurt Wimmer’s film Equilibrium (2002) is set in color. It tells a story about how suppressing emotions eliminates war‚ and any books‚ art‚ or music is forbidden. Those who are caught being a sense offender has committed a crime punishable by death. The film demonstrates the true source of man’s inhumanity to man. The internal struggle within the characters throughout the film such as with the main character Cleric John Preston (Christian Bale)‚ contributes to the theme of the Truth of

Chemiluminescence can be defined as the emission of light by a chemical reaction that does not produce heat. Chemiluminescence can also be found in nature‚ where it is referred to as bioluminescence. This can often be found in many deep sea fish‚ algae‚ and fireflies. Luminol is one of many chemicals that can be used to create chemiluminescence outside of

The position of this dynamic equilibrium can be moved forward by changing the conditions the reaction is done in. This follows Le Chatelier’s Principle which says changes to a system in equilibrium will move it in an opposite direction.
