Question

Select all of the true statements regarding chemical equilibrium.

a. The concentrations of reactants and products are equal.
b. The concentrations of reactants and products remain constant.
c. Reactants are being converted to products and vice versa.
d. The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is d. The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

During a reversible reaction, a reaction that can occur to both sides of the equation, the chemical equilibirum is a state when the rates of reaction forward and reverse are equal, this means that the reaction never stops, it keep happening, but the conversion and decomposition rates are the same, and not necessarily the concentrations of reactants and products are equal.

Therefore, the correct answer is d. The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.

Answer 2

Answer: OPTIONS B, C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

At equilibrium, concentration of reactant and product are not necessarily equal to each other.

But concentration of both reactants and products is constant equal rates of forward reaction and backward reaction.

And at equilibrium, Interconversion of products and reactants occurs.

Hence Among the given B, C and D are correct.
