Many chemical reactions, like combustion , go to completion and not to equilibrium. It is normally desirable to give a chemical reaction time to reach equilibrium in order you get the maximum yield of one or more products.
In a reversible reaction, the reactants and products become to a dynamic equilibrium after some time. after gaining this equilibrium, when more reactants are added the equilibrium breaks. So according to the Le Chetelier principle, the reaction will proceed until the equilibrium is gained.
The difference is that chemical equilibrium is the equilibrium of products and reactants in a reaction while physical equilibrium is the equilibrium of the physical states of the same substance.

punctuated equilibrium
Equilibrium solubility is how much of a certain solute is in solution when the system has reached equilibrium. For example, when something like silver chloride (AgCl) is placed in water, none of it goes into solution. But given some time, an equilibrium will be reached where a small amount of AgCl is in solution and is in equilibrium with the insoluble AgCl.
at equilibrium
For the condition of phase equilibrium the free energy is a minimum, the system is completely stable meaning that over time the phase characteristics are constant. For metastability, the system is not at equilibrium, and there are very slight (and often imperceptible) changes of the phase characteristics with time.
The answer is that the system is in 'equilibrium'. More exactly thermal equilibrium. Ice and Water can both form at 0C and 1 ATM. When two things are touching, they are at equilibrium with each other. Since the ice cube has had enough time to melt, it has had enough time to reach equilibrium with the water and is at 0C.
It takes time to reach the equilibrium because they don't know what is the "right price" to sell the product. whether prices change quickly or slowly however once they move toward equilibrium shortages and surpluses start to disappear.
No. Evolution is the change in allele ( different molecular forms of the same gene ) frequency over time in a population of organisms. No equilibrium there.
The correct statement of equilibrium is that the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, leading to a constant concentration of reactants and products over time.
Many chemical reactions, like combustion , go to completion and not to equilibrium. It is normally desirable to give a chemical reaction time to reach equilibrium in order you get the maximum yield of one or more products.
The critical time is a politent of social workers.
Punctuated Equilibrium, I believe is the answer.
