The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

F

T

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equilibrium equation;

N2O4(g) ⇄NO2(g)

We must have to remember that;

1) At equilibrium, the concentration of the species on both sides of the reaction equation may not necessarily be the same but must be held at a constant value because the rate of forward reaction equals the rate of reverse reaction.

2) The rate of forward reaction must equal the rate of reverse reaction.

If the rate of forward reaction is k1 and the rate of reverse reaction is k2. Then it follows that at equilibrium k1 = k2.
