How would you use Le Chatelier's principle to explain the different colors found in the following equilibria? $N i^{2 +}$ $Ni^(2+)$ , $N H_{3}$ $NH_3$ , and ${[N i {(N H_{3})}_{6}]}_{6}^{2 +}$ $[Ni(NH_3)_6]^(2+)$ ?

Well, what are the different colours, and what experiment did you do?

Explanation:

We gots an equilibrium...

$N i^{2 +} + 6 N H_{3} (a q) ⇌ {[N i {(N H_{3})}_{6}]}_{6}^{2 +}$ $Ni^(2+) + 6NH_3(aq)rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^(2+)$

You did the experiment; what did you see?

And old Le Chatelier's principle states that when $a system at equilbrium is subject to an external$ $"a system at equilbrium is subject to an external "$
$perturbation, the equilibrium will move so as to offset$ $"perturbation, the equilibrium will move so as to offset"$ $the external perturbation$ $"the external perturbation"$ .

And the point to note here is that $OFFSET \neq COUNTERACT$ $"OFFSET "!=" COUNTERACT"$ .
