Explanation:

A redox reaction equation shows a gain/loss of electrons from left to right in a reaction. In a redox reaction, a specie looses electrons while another specie gains electrons.

Considering the equation; 2Al(s) + 3Cu(NO3)2(aq) -----> 3Cu(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)

The oxidation state of Al reactant is zero since the oxidation state of all uncombined elements is zero. The oxidation state of All in the product is +3

The oxidation state of the copper in the reactant is +2. The oxidation state of copper in the product is zero.

The oxidation state of N in the reactant and product is +5.

The oxidation state of oxygen in the reactant and product is (-2).

This is a redox reaction because from left to right, Al was oxidized (oxidation number increased from zero to +3) while Cu was reduced (oxidation number decreased from +2 to zero).

Answer:

Describe what is happening within the system when it is at equilibrium in terms of concentrations, reactions that occur, and reaction rates.

Explanation:

The chemical equilibrium state is the state where the rate of forward reaction becomes equal to the rate of backward reaction.

At this stage the change in concentration of reactants becomes equal to the change in concentration of products.

The reaction will never cease.

That is the reason chemical equilibrium is called dynamic equilibrium.

So, forward and backward reactions will be taking place continuously at equal rates.
