∙ 9y agoThe rate of the forward reaction is the same as the rate of reverse reaction. The reactions and products are in the same state and their concentrations remain constant.

When the forward and reverse paths of a change occur at the same rate?
If you are referring to paths in a chemical reaction, that is called the "chemical equilibrium".
Explain chemical equilibrium shifts to favor products?
when a system is in equilibrium it is stable and all its parts function smoothly
When a systime has reached chemical equilibrium the concentrations of the reactants and products?
When a system has reached chemical equilibrium, the concentrations of the reactants and product remain constant.
When the stabilized state of an equilibrium system is altered further chemical reactions begin until a new equilibrium is reached?
True
What is difference between physical and chemical balance?
The difference is that chemical equilibrium is the equilibrium of products and reactants in a reaction while physical equilibrium is the equilibrium of the physical states of the same substance.
Characteristics of chemical equilibrium?
A chemical equilibrium can only be obtained in a closed system, and is defined by the equal rates of forward and reverse reactions. Consistency of observable and measurable properties usually indicate a reaction has reached equilibrium.
What does Le chateliers principles say about upsetting a system at equilibrium?
Le Chatelier's principle says that if a system in chemical equilibrium is disturbed, the system will move in such a way as to nullify that change.
When the forward and reverse paths of a change occur at the same rate?
If you are referring to paths in a chemical reaction, that is called the "chemical equilibrium".
Which is not a characteristic of chemical equilibrium?
The ONLY characteristics of an equilibrium are:sort of reactants and products involvedconcentration of all components in the continuous phasetemperatureThe others are non-characteristic
What is the difference between phase equilibrium and metastability?
For the condition of phase equilibrium the free energy is a minimum, the system is completely stable meaning that over time the phase characteristics are constant. For metastability, the system is not at equilibrium, and there are very slight (and often imperceptible) changes of the phase characteristics with time.
Explain chemical equilibrium shifts to favor products?
when a system is in equilibrium it is stable and all its parts function smoothly
When a systime has reached chemical equilibrium the concentrations of the reactants and products?
When a system has reached chemical equilibrium, the concentrations of the reactants and product remain constant.
When the stabilized state of an equilibrium system is altered further chemical reactions begin until a new equilibrium is reached?
True
Describes chemical equilibrium?
Chemical equilibrium is a term used to describe a balanced condition within a system of chemical reactions. Essentially, when in chemical equilibrium, substances becomes definite and constant.
What happens when reactant is added to a system at equilibrium?
The equilibrium of the system will be upset.
What are the two kinds of equilibrium?
The two kinds of equilibrium are the folowing:Physical, which is an open system, and the rate of substances in, equals the rate of substances out.The other equilibrium is chemical equilibrium, which is a closed system, and the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.
How does Le Chatelier's Principle apply to chemical systems?
Le Chatelier's principle is very important in studying the chemical systems in equilibrium. It states if an external stress is applied to a system in equilibrium, then the equilibrium shifts in a direction where the change can be neutralized.
