<h2>Key Concepts and Summary</h2>
<p>A reaction is at equilibrium when the amounts of reactants or products no longer change. Chemical equilibrium is a dynamic process, meaning the <a data-lesson="rate-laws" data-subject="chemistry" data-tutorial="chemical-kinetics" href="https://app.ulearngo.com/chemistry/chemical-kinetics/rate-laws">rate</a> of formation of products by the forward reaction is equal to the rate at which the products re-form reactants by the reverse reaction.</p>

<h3>equilibrium</h3>
<p>in <a data-lesson="representing-chemical-change" data-subject="chemistry" data-tutorial="physical-and-chemical-change" href="https://app.ulearngo.com/chemistry/physical-and-chemical-change/representing-chemical-change">chemical</a> reactions, the state in which the conversion of reactants into products and the conversion of products back into reactants occur simultaneously at the same rate; state of balance</p>
<h3>reversible reaction</h3>
<p>chemical reaction that can proceed in both the forward and reverse directions under given conditions</p>

Summarizing Chemical Equilibria

Chemistry generally explores the substances of which matter is composed, the investigation of their properties and reactions, and the use of such reactions to form new substances.
