Question

When the system A + B ⇌ C + D is at equilibrium,
Options
A the forward reaction has stopped
B the reverse reaction has stopped
C both forward and reverse reactions have stopped
D neither the forward nor the reverse reaction has stopped
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

At equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions continue at equal rates, so neither has stopped. There is no net change in concentrations.

Hint

Dynamic equilibrium means reactions are still occurring, just at equal rates.
