Answer to Problem 37A
When equilibrium is attained, there exists an expression of concentration of the substances involved in equilibrium which becomes constant at a given temperature.
Explanation of Solution
Equilibrium is the state at which the concentrations of reactants and products do not change with time.
At equilibrium , both the forward and the backward reactions are still taking place but the rates of forward and the backward reactions becomes equal. As a result, the concentration of each species becomes constant. Te system is said to be in a dynamic equilibrium.
Rate of forward reaction = rate of backward reaction
When equilibrium is attained, there exists an expression of concentration of the substances involved in equilibrium which becomes constant at a given temperature.
