What is the main difference between equilibrium and steady state in a chemical reaction?
What is the main difference between equilibrium and steady state in a chemical reaction?
- Equilibrium is when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the backward reaction, while steady state is a stage with constant concentration of an intermediate. (correct)
- Equilibrium occurs when the reactants are completely converted into products, while steady state occurs when the reactants are partially converted into products.
- Equilibrium is a stage with constant concentration of an intermediate, while steady state is when the reaction reaches completion.
- Equilibrium is a state where the reaction has a constant concentration of reactants, while steady state is when the rate of the forward reaction is faster than the rate of the backward reaction.
In which type of reaction can one find ions as well as molecules in the solution?
In which type of reaction can one find ions as well as molecules in the solution?
- Reaction between two strong acids
- Reaction between weak acid and weak base (correct)
- Reaction between strong acid and strong base
- Reaction between two weak bases
What characterizes a reaction that reaches completion?
What characterizes a reaction that reaches completion?
- The reaction has a constant concentration of reactants
- The rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the backward reaction
- The reaction has a constant concentration of an intermediate
- All reactants are completely converted into products (correct)
