EquilibriumEquilibrium – when two opposite reactions – when two opposite reactions occur simultaneously and at the same rateoccur simultaneously and at the same rate
Dynamic equilibriumDynamic equilibrium – equilibrium can be – equilibrium can be shifted if one or more of the reactants is shifted if one or more of the reactants is changed in any way. The equilibrium will changed in any way. The equilibrium will “react”“react”
