Something is in "equilibrium" when it is in a state of perfect balance or rest. All forces acting on it are equal and opposite. It is in a "minimum" energy state.

What is solubility 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.


Is reached when the concentration of the solute is the same throughout a solution?

dynamic equilibrium


When the particles are the same throughout the system?

Equilibrium is reached, the solution is isotonic.


Is The substances of a solution are evenly distributed?

Of course they. If not, they would not be "in solution".If substances of a solution are evenly distributed then they have reached equilibrium.


When two solutions are equal in their solute concentration?

isotonic solution


What is reached when the number of molecules crossing the membrane is the same in both directions?

equilibrium is reached equilibrium is reached


Solution equilibrium most likely exists in which type of solution?

Equilibrium is only found in a saturated solution, where the dissolved species and the undissolved species are in equilibrium with each other. In a dilute solution there is nothing that is undissolved, and so there is no equilibrium, and by definition a supersaturated solution is out of equilibrium and essentially has too much stuff dissolved in it (it will eventually return to equilibrium and some of the dissolved material will precipitate out).


How does a system respond to change once it has reached equilibrium?

At equilibrium its not changing (any more).


What is reached when molecules are equally distributed?

an equilibrium


How do isotonic solutions and equilibrium differ?

isotonic solution, equilibrium


When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules comes out of solution the solution is in?

When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules comes out of solution the solution is in 'equilibrium'.


When a systime has reached chemical equilibrium the concentrations of the reactants and products?

When a system has reached chemical equilibrium, the concentrations of the reactants and product remain constant.
