Chemistry II For Dummies

This equilibrium constant describes the relationship between the amounts of the reactants and the products at a certain temperature. The value of the equilibrium constant is only constant if the temperature is constant

I call this example a dynamic chemical equilibrium because when the reactions reach equilibrium, things don’t just stop

When a system reaches equilibrium, the rate (speed) of both of the reactions are the same and the concentrations of the reactants and products become constant
