A reaction reaches dynamic equilibrium at a given temperature when

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

At dynamic equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions are still occurring, but at equal rates. Therefore, the relative amounts of reactants and products are constant, and rate_fwd = rate_rev. Choice A is incorrect because at equilibrium the amount of products is not necessarily greater than the amount of reactants. Choice B is a restatement of the equilibrium expression. Choice C is incorrect because at equilibrium the reactions are still occurring, just at equal rates.
