Question

Choose all of the following that must be true about a reaction that has reached a state of equilibrium.

Reactants are no longer being converted into products. O The concentration of the reactants will be less than the concentration of the products. The G for the reaction will equal zero. The Go for the reaction must equal the G. O The reaction is no longer making net progress in either direction. O The rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. The concentration of the reactants will now equal the concentration of the products. Keg will equal 1. O The ratio of [products]/[reactants] is no longer changing.

Explanation / Answer

The true statements are:

The deltaG for the reaction is zero

The rate of Forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction

The ratio of concentration of products to concentration of reactants is no longer changing.
