Chemical Equilibrium
CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM: Equilibrium (balance) between the forward and reverse rates in chemical processes.
• The rate of the forward reaction = the rate of the reverse reaction
N2 + 3H2 2NH3
: Represents the forward reaction : Represents the reverse reaction
• The concentration of all the substances remains constant, in a set proportion.
