Question

consider the following chemical reaction:
2ch₄(g) ⇌ c₂h₂(g) + 3h₂(g)
describe what is happening within the system
when it is at equilibrium in terms of concentrations,
reactions that occur, and reaction rates.

Explanation:

Answer:

At equilibrium, concentrations of \(CH_4\), \(C_2H_2\), and \(H_2\) remain constant. Forward (\(2CH_4
ightarrow C_2H_2 + 3H_2\)) and reverse (\(C_2H_2 + 3H_2
ightarrow 2CH_4\)) reactions occur simultaneously. Rate of forward reaction equals rate of reverse reaction.
