Questions and Answers

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?

  • 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?

  • 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)

    • What is the state of a chemical reaction where the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the backward reaction?
