Real Life applications
What are some real life applications of this equilibrium relationship? Like what field of study or possible use in society might it have?

Re: Real Life applications
I'm not exactly sure about like applications in daily life, but I think this would be very important when conducting experiments with chemicals. So maybe like the field of chemistry/biochemistry and related research?

Re: Real Life applications
Equilibrium is very useful for biochemical and molecular biology research because researchers often deal with the concentrations of biomolecules in cells and how an enzyme catalyzes these reactions to equilibrium. I remember when I did biochemical research, we would put molecules and enzymes in the same well and use a machine to measure a graph of the concentration of molecules to see how fast the enzyme worked to reach equilibrium.

The equilibrium relationship can be seen in Hemogolobin-oxygen and also in moods rings and color changing nail polish

Re: Real Life applications
We would primarily use this in chemistry and biochemistry as well as biomedical research. It obviously describes chemical relationships but can also describe biological ones as well, such as enzyme catalyst, which can be used for potential medical treatments.
