Question
What is chemical equilibrium ?
✓

Answer


A system is said to be in chemical equilibrium when there are no chemical reactions going on within the system.
OR
A system is said to be in chemical equilibrium when its chemical composition is the same throughout the system and does not change with time.
[Note : In this case, in the absence of concentration gradient, there is no diffusion, i.e., there is no transport of matter from one part of the system to the other.]
