Which of the following conditions characterizes a system in a state of chemical equilibrium? a) Reactants are being consumed at the same rate they are being produced.
b) Concentrations of reactants and products are equal.
c) Product concentrations are greater than reactant concentrations.
d) Reactant molecules no longer react with each other.
e) Rate of forward reaction has dropped to zero.

a) Reactants are being consumed at the same rate they are being produced.

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, chemical equilibrium is a state in which there is no change in concentration of the reactant and product. This means that as the reactants are consumed, they are also produced. Same thing with the products; immediately they are formed, they are consumed.

The option that accurately depicts a reaction at equilibrium is;

a) Reactants are being consumed at the same rate they are being produced.

the answer would be a
