NEETChemistryChemical Equilibrium
Why is there no change in the mass of ice and water in this equilibrium scenario?
Options
- ABecause the temperature is constant.
- BBecause the equilibrium is static.
- CBecause the rates of molecule transfer are equal.
- DBecause the pressure is high.
Correct answer
C. Because the rates of molecule transfer are equal.
Step-by-step solution
There is no change in the mass of ice and water because the rates of transfer of molecules from ice into water and from water into ice are equal.
