For A⇌2B, the conserved amount is M=NA​+NB​/2. The total particle count NA​+NB​ changes during reaction. Defining a dissociated fraction by α=NB​/(2M) gives NA​=M(1−α).

Reaction formula-unit conservation
For A⇌2B, α2/(1−α)=KN​/(4M). The left side increases monotonically on 0<α<1, so increasing the conserved formula-unit density at fixed temperature reduces dissociation in the ideal model.
