Question

1. Which of the following is true regarding a Dynamic Equilibrium? A) it may occur in both open and closed systems B) the forward reaction is only occurring C) the concentrations found at equilibrium are different if a system approaches equilibrium from different directions D) the concentration of reactants and products remains constant

Answer 1

Answer:

D) the concentration of reactants and products remains constant.

Explanation:

1. Which of the following is true regarding a Dynamic Equilibrium?

A) it may occur in both open and closed systems. FALSE. It can only occur in closed systems. Otherwise, gases would leave the recipient and it would be impossible to reach the equilibrium.

B) the forward reaction is only occurring. FALSE. The forward reaction and the reverse reaction occur at the same rate.

C) the concentrations found at equilibrium are different if a system approaches equilibrium from different directions. FALSE. The equilibrium is the same regardless of the direction from which it comes.

D) the concentration of reactants and products remains constant. TRUE.
