Question

At equilibrium, the rate of formation of products is:
Options
A Greater than the rate of decomposition
B Zero
C Less than the reverse rate
D Equal to the rate of formation of reactants
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

At equilibrium, the forward reaction rate (formation of products) equals the reverse reaction rate (formation of reactants). This is the defining condition of dynamic chemical equilibrium.

Hint

The system is in balance. How do the rates of the two opposing processes compare?
