Henry Louis Le Chatelier [1] (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ʁi lwi lə ʃɑtəlje]; 8 October 1850 – 17 September 1936) was a French chemist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He devised Le Chatelier's principle , used by chemists and chemical engineers to predict the effect a changing condition has on a system in chemical equilibrium .
Paris, France. Scientific career. Fields. Chemistry. Louis Le Chatelier (20 February 1815 – 10 November 1873) was a French chemist and industrialist who developed a method for producing aluminium from bauxite in 1855. His son was chemist Henry Louis Le Chatelier. His name is inscribed on the Eiffel tower. [1][2]
Le Chatelier's principle. In chemistry, Le Chatelier's principle (pronounced UK: / lə ʃæˈtɛljeɪ / or US: / ˈʃɑːtəljeɪ /), also called Chatelier's principle, Braun–Le Chatelier principle, Le Chatelier–Braun principle or the equilibrium law, [1] is a principle used to predict the effect of a change in conditions on chemical ...
The term systemantics is a commentary on prior work by Alfred Korzybski called general semantics which conjectured that all systems failures could be attributed to a single root cause – a failure to communicate. Gall observes that, instead, system failure is an intrinsic feature of systems. He thereby derives the term general systemantics in ...
Le Châtelier's principle (1884) predicts the behavior of an equilibrium system when changes to its reaction conditions occur. If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to partially reverse the change. For example, adding more S (to the chemical reaction above) from the outside will ...
Laminar flame speed is an intrinsic characteristic of premixed combustible mixtures. [1] It is the speed at which an un-stretched laminar flame will propagate through a quiescent mixture of unburned reactants. Laminar flame speed is given the symbol sL. According to the thermal flame theory of Ernest-François Mallard and Le Chatelier, the un ...
The de Gaulle family produced several 20th-century officers, Resistance members, and French politicians.. There is a widespread notion claiming that the particle in "de Gaulle" is derived from a dialectal form of the article (it should logically be written De Gaulle, for one writes Le Châtelier, but usage has always favoured the lowercase form).
Nationality. French. Occupation (s) Soldier, Ceramicist, Islamologist. Frédéric Alfred Le Chatelier (23 November 1855 – 9 August 1929) was a French soldier, ceramicist and Islamologist. He spent most of his military career in the French African colonies. After leaving the army he was involved in a project to build a railway in the French Congo.
