O Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. O Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction. Zero. What is the rate of the forward reaction just after the CH4 and H₂O has been added to the flask? Greater than zero, but less than the rate of the reverse reaction. O Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction. Zero. What is the rate of the forward reaction at equilibrium? Greater than zero, but less than the rate of the reverse reaction. O Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. O Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction. None. Some, but less than 96. mmol. How much CH4 is in the flask at equilibrium? 96. mmol. More than 96. mmol.

### Chemical Equilibrium - Reaction Rates

#### Reaction:

\[ \text{CH}_4(\text{g}) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{g}) \rightarrow \text{CO}(\text{g}) + 3\text{H}_2(\text{g}) \]

Imagine 96. mmol of \(\text{CH}_4\) and 96. mmol of \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) are added to an empty flask, and then answer the following questions:

1. **What is the rate of the forward reaction before any \(\text{CH}_4\) or \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) has been added to the flask?**
    - \[
    \begin{cases}
        \text{Zero.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, but less than the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction.}
    \end{cases}
    \]

2. **What is the rate of the forward reaction just after the \(\text{CH}_4\) and \(\text{H}_2\text{O}\) has been added to the flask?**
    - \[
    \begin{cases}
        \text{Zero.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, but less than the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction.}
    \end{cases}
    \]

3. **What is the rate of the forward reaction at equilibrium?**
    - \[
    \begin{cases}
        \text{Zero.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, but less than the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.} \\
        \text{Greater than zero, and greater than the rate of the reverse reaction.}
    \end{cases}
    \]
