Reversible reactions and dynamic equilibrium
Question
- A. The forward reaction occurs faster than the reverse reaction.
- B. The concentrations of reactants and products are changingconstantly.
- C. Both forward and reverse reactions continue at the same rate.
- D. The reaction has completely stopped.
Answer
Both forward and reverse reactions continue at the same rate.
Explanation
The correct answer is Both forward and reverse reactions continue at the same rate.. This answer directly addresses the question: Which statement best describes dynamic equilibrium? It matches the approved Chemistry 8462 learning objective and the linked subtopic. The other options are incorrect because they either change the rate, catalyst, reversible reaction, equilibrium, or graph context, or they do not answer the exact point being tested.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding Equilibrium
Students often think that at equilibrium, the reactions have completely stopped.
Emphasize that equilibrium means the forward and reverse reactions continue at the same rate, maintaining constant concentrations of reactants and products.
