The Law of Mass Action is a fundamental principle that governs the equilibrium of a chemical reaction. It states that the rate of a chemical reaction is directly proportional to the product of the concentrations (or activities) of the reactants, each raised to the power of their respective coefficients in the balanced chemical equation. This law applies to both homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibria.
