An individual step in a multi-step reaction, each with its own equilibrium constant.

A compound that appears as both a reactant and a product in different steps of a reaction, canceling out in the overall equation.

The physical state of a substance (solid, liquid, gas) which must match in partial and overall reactions.

A number indicating the quantity of moles of a substance in a chemical equation.

The reciprocal of a value, used when reversing a reaction to adjust the equilibrium constant.

To increase the coefficients of a reaction, affecting the power of the equilibrium constant.
