What is meant by chemical equilibrium? Discuss the characteristics of chemical equilibrium.
Chemical equilibrium is the state of the system in which there is no observable change in the properties of system with time. The rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction and there is no change in the observable properties of the reaction system which is achieved only in a reversible reaction performed in a closed system.
The characteristics of chemical equilibrium are :-
- Chemical equilibrium is dynamic in nature. When a reversible reaction has attained equilibrium...
