if the concentration of products and reactants are equal, is the system at equilibrium? computation
Answers
Answer:
In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates, and the concentrations of products and reactants remain constant. If we run a reaction in a closed system so that the products cannot escape, we often find the reaction does not give a 100% yield of products.
Answer:
Yes, if the concentration of products and reactants are equal, is the system at equilibrium
Explanation:
A reversible reaction occurs when reactants are converted to products and products are converted back to reactants at the same time.
In the reverse reaction, hydrogen iodide decomposes back into hydrogen and iodine. The two reactions can be combined into one equation by the use of a double arrow.
For a reversible reaction, equilibrium occurs. Reversible indicates that as reactants collide and produce a product, the product accumulates and collides with itself, reacting to reform reactants. When the system is no longer clearly changing, it has reached equilibrium. That point is reached when the rate at which products are made equals the pace at which reactants are made, not when there are equal amounts of products and reactants.
