Equilibrium Project
Purpose: The goal of this project was to create a social media campaign to inform at least 100 people of the dynamic condition-dependent balance of a chemical reaction at equilibrium.
Concepts:
Chemical Equilibrium- A chemical equilibrium occurs when the forward and reverse reactions are equal. When the conditions change, it causes the reaction to fall out of equilibrium. In the brain, chemical equilibrium is the normal level of dopamine neurotransmitters in a person who has not taken any drugs.
Le Chatelier's Principle - According to Le Chatelier, the position of equilibrium will move in such a way as to counteract the change. That means that the position of equilibrium will move so that the concentration of A decreases again - by reacting it with B and turning it into C + D. The position of equilibrium moves to the right.
Equilibrium is a dynamic nature, it is always occurring in the body, and is falling in and out of equilibrium throughout the day.

Reflection:
This project was overall very productive in my eyes, I believe the final product I produced will help people understand chemical addiction in a better light, and show people the effects it can have on the body. In the beginning this project was very stressful for me, I didn't fully understand the concepts, and how to create the campaign that we were required to produce, but with the help of my teacher and my peers, I was able to come to an understanding of what we had to do. In this project I was able to learn how to make a prezi, which at first was very hard to get the hang of, but in the end I was able to get the hang of it. Lastly, I was able to understand the concepts in the project and was able to use them as an advantage in my project to show my audience I understand my topic. I believe that I could've presented by formula in a better way, since it is a big part of my equilibrium. I also believe that I could've done a better job in creating my supporting document in a more organized way to help myself in creating my campaign's content. All in all I believe this project as a whole was very successful, and can really make a difference to some of the people that will see my project.
