Basic Equilibrium  

STELLATM is a natural for showing equilibrium. This model demonstrates three different ways in which models can be built to show equilibrium in the generic reaction A yields B. The second version (Reactant A2 and Product B2) is the format most frequently used.

STELLATM software is needed to view the model in Mac (hqx) format or PC format.
