Keyboard graph navigation: press N for concepts or E for relations; use arrow keys, Home, and End to move; Enter selects; Shift plus Enter selects and centers; plus and minus zoom; zero fits; Escape clears the selection. Use the visible viewport buttons as alternatives to dragging, wheel, and pinch gestures.
Select a concept
Select any concept, construction junction, or annotated relation by pointer, touch, search, or keyboard.
Construction junctions are diamonds. They show where multiple structures must coexist on the same carrier and satisfy compatibility conditions.
Move selected concept
Single-pointer and keyboard alternatives to dragging. Each activation moves the selected concept one step.
A qualitative rule that a stable equilibrium shifts in the direction opposing an imposed change, subject to precise constraints and without replacing quantitative thermodynamics.

determines spontaneous response direction
Authored explanation
Comparison of reaction quotient with the equilibrium constant determines the thermodynamic direction of change; it does not predict the rate.
How to interpret this relation type
A theory, law, or interaction describes the behavior of the target within a stated regime. The edge detail must state important limits or qualifications.

qualitative perturbation response
Authored explanation
The principle summarizes the direction of many stable-equilibrium responses but can mislead when constraints or coupled reactions are left unstated.
