What is chemical equilibrium defined as?
Forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate
What type of reaction is a reaction at chemical equilibrium?
Reversible reaction
Dynamic equilibrium occurs when the forward and reverse reactions continue at equal rates, resulting in no net change in
concentrations
.
True
At dynamic equilibrium, there is no net change in the
concentrations
of reactants and products.
True
What characterizes the rate of forward and reverse reactions at chemical equilibrium?
Equal rates
In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions continue to occur, but at the same
rate
At chemical equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction is initially faster than the reverse reaction.
False
Unlike static equilibrium, dynamic equilibrium involves continuous activity maintaining stable
concentrations
.
True
Which reaction exemplifies dynamic equilibrium in the hydrogen-iodine system?
H₂ + I₂ ⇌ 2HI
Match the system state with its equilibrium type:
Static Equilibrium ↔️ Stable, non-changing state
Dynamic Equilibrium ↔️ Stable, continuously active state
At chemical equilibrium, the
concentrations
of reactants and products remain constant over time.
True
What happens to the rates of the forward and reverse reactions at chemical equilibrium?
Rates are equal
What is the key difference between static and dynamic equilibrium?
Static reactions cease completely
Which gas maintains a constant concentration in water due to dynamic equilibrium?
Carbon dioxide
The concentrations of reactants and products remain constant over time in a
chemical equilibrium
.
True
Match the feature with the correct reaction type:
Forward Reaction ↔️ Reactants to Products
Reverse Reaction ↔️ Products to Reactants
What is the key feature of dynamic equilibrium in terms of reaction rates?
Equal forward and reverse rates
In the example of water evaporation, water molecules are constantly evaporating and
condensing
Dynamic equilibrium involves a continuous exchange between
reactants
and products.
True
Chemical equilibrium is a state where the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same
rate
In a forward reaction, reactants are converted into
products
In dynamic equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur continuously at the same
rate
Water evaporation is an example of dynamic
equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium
is a state where the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same
rate
What are the two main processes in a reversible chemical reaction?
Forward and reverse reactions
At chemical equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are
equal
Match the feature with its description in dynamic equilibrium:
Equal Rates ↔️ Forward and reverse reactions proceed at the same rate
Constant Concentrations ↔️ Reactants and products remain stable over time
In static equilibrium, reactions have completely
stopped
