Study Guide Overview
This study guide covers chemical equilibrium, including reversible reactions (represented with ⇌), the concept of dynamic equilibrium where the rate of forward and reverse reactions are equal, and the requirement of a closed system. It explains the equilibrium constants Kc (concentration-based) and Kp (pressure-based), their relationship, and how to calculate them. The guide also emphasizes that equilibrium is a dynamic process, not a static one, and provides practice questions covering these concepts.

Question 1 of 9
Which of the following is an example of a reversible reaction? 🔄
Combustion of methane (CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O)
Formation of water (2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O)
Evaporation and condensation of water (H₂O(l) ⇌ H₂O(g))
Neutralization of a strong acid with a strong base (HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O)
