The State of Equilibrium How do we attain @ stato of equim? Consider a hypothetical reversible (gaseous reacton: A+B C+D ‘Suppose that we place a mixure of A and Bina dosed container. They wil eact to produce C and D. As the forward reacton occ the concentration of A end B braduelly decrease, causing a simultaneous decrease in the rate of te reaction, a8 shown by the top euve in fhe flowing pour. From the figure two Important observations can be made: fst the rate does not decrease fo zero, ‘and second, afte a time the rat loves of to a constant value, — 5 | (covers rte Time [A the start ofthe experiment, the reverse reaction cannct proceed since or Dis nol yet formed. AS soon as the forward reaction produces some C and 1, hnowaver, the reverse reaction bogins. As the concentrations of © and D increase, tho rale ofthe reverse reaction ineraates ae shown by the botiom ‘curve in te above-igur. As ime passes, if the forward rate ls decreasing and the reverse rate Increasing, eventually the two tates wil become equal. At this ‘Slate or condition the system is now in oxuideum. The tne requred to establish ‘equitrium depends on the rates of the forward and ravers reactions, which, "urn, depend onthe nature of the reactants andthe condone of te reacton a ‘There are three conditions that are found in every equilibrium system: 1. The equiltrium is dynamic.
