for the first reaction demonstration, when you add the HCl into the original purplish solution and it turns blue, does the solution remain blue even after a period of time? or go back purple after a while? coz, considering its an equilbrium and it attempts to maintain the equilibrium, when the solution turns blue, there are more products, so then more products should then cause more reactants to be formed to try and even it out again so then the colour would ultimately return to original purple?
@dobbythefish It will shift based on how much HCl you add. It should stay there unless you disturb the equilibrium. If you add water it will shift the other way.
