What happens to the concentrations of reactants and products in a reversible reaction at equilibrium?
They no longer change
What macroscopic change occurs in a system at chemical equilibrium?
Cessation of chemical activity
In a reversible reaction, what condition is achieved when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal?
Equilibrium
In a reversible reaction, what is the term for the state where reactants and products no longer change?
Equilibrium
What is the meaning of the term 'equilibrium'?
The state of having equal quantities and forces
What does 'dynamic equilibrium' refer to?
A situation where the hole remains the same size
In chemical equilibrium, what does it mean if the forward and reverse reactions reach equal rates?
The forward and backward reactions do not stop but reach equal rates
Why is the equilibrium constant reported as unitless?
Because the concentrations are reported as ratios to a thermodynamic standard-state quantity
