CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM
CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM
Chemical Equilibrium speaks about the condition in which forward and reverse reaction rates of reversible
processes are equal. At this point, the concentrations of the reactants and products remain unchanged where the
ratio of the molar concentrations of the products over those of the reactant, raised to their corresponding
stoichiometric coefficients is also constant. And this ratio is known as the equilibrium constant of the reaction.
