WHY THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE THAT AT EQUILLIBIRUM THE CONCENTRATION OF REACTENT=CONCENTRATION OF PRODUCT?
Asked by | 10th Nov, 2012, 07:07: PM
Expert Answer:
Chemical equilibrium is the condition which occurs when the concentration of reactants and products participating in a chemical reaction exhibit no net change over time. This does not mean the chemical reaction has necessarily stopped occurring, but that the consumption and formation of substances has reached a balanced condition. The quantities of reactants and products have achieved a constant ratio, but they are almost never equal. There may be much more product or much more reactant.
So, the statement is false.
