Question

A system is in equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction is _____ the rate of the reverse reaction.

greater than
less than
unequal to
equal to

Answer 1

It is equal to on OW

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Option 4) equal to

Explanation

When having a reversible reaction, this reaction (or system) reaches the balnace, it is observed that relative quantitives for all compounds (this is, reactives and products), remain constant

The species concentration does not change over time, and; in the same way; there are no physical changes as time goes by

For example, for the following reaction :

aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

Compounds A and B react to give products C and D. The two way arrows means that this systme has reached the balance (is in equilibrium)
