What is the rate with which the reactants form products in a reversible reaction called?

Forward reaction rate (rf) (correct)

Dynamic reaction rate

Reverse reaction rate (rr)

Equilibrium rate

When is equilibrium in a chemical reaction reached?

When only products are present

At the beginning of the reaction

When the concentration of reactants is highest

When the rate of forward reaction equals the rate of reverse reaction (correct)

What happens to the rate of forward reaction as the concentration of reactants decreases?

It becomes erratic

It increases

It decreases (correct)

It remains constant

Why does the rate of reverse reaction increase as the reaction progresses?

Due to the increase in the concentration of products Signup and view all the answers
