JEE PYQ: Chemical Kinetics Question 15
Question 15 - 2020 (04 Sep Shift 1)
For the equilibrium $\text{A} \rightleftharpoons \text{B}$, the variation of the rate of the forward (a) and reverse (b) reaction with time is given by:
(1) Forward rate decreases, reverse rate increases, both meet at equilibrium
(2) Both rates increase and meet at equilibrium
(3) Forward rate increases, reverse rate decreases
(4) Both rates decrease and meet at equilibrium
Show Answer
Answer: (2)
Solution
At equilibrium, rate of forward reaction = Rate of backward reaction.
