Question

select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. a reversible reaction is a reaction that takes place in the forward and backward directions. if the reaction were to drop-down menu with options: go to completion, reach equilibrium, lose its activation energy, the rate of the forward reaction would equal that of the reverse reaction. buttons: reset, next

Explanation:

For the second drop - down: A reversible reaction reaches a state called equilibrium where the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. "Go to completion" is not correct for reversible reactions as they don't go to completion. "Lose its activation energy" is incorrect as activation energy is a property related to the energy barrier for a reaction, not something a reaction loses to have equal forward and reverse rates. So the correct option is "reach equilibrium".

Answer:

reach equilibrium
