Which of the following statements correctly describes any chemical reaction that has reached equilibrium?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction. It does not necessarily mean that the concentrations of products and reactants are equal, nor does it mean that both forward and reverse reactions have halted. Equilibrium is a dynamic state in which the reaction continues to occur, but with no net change in the concentration of reactants and products. The reaction can still be reversible, and it is not necessarily irreversible. No reactants remaining is only valid if the reaction has gone to completion, but in equilibrium, there are still reactants and products present.
