Why amount of reactant and product do not change in reversible reaction?

The amount of reactants and products do not change in reversible reactions because, in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed -- it is only rearranged. This is the law of conservation of matter.

∙ 11y agoThe forward reaction begins at the start of the experiment and gives a rise in a number of products. At this point of time, amount of reactants is more than products.
Once the products increase to a greater amount than the reactants, backward reaction starts. Here the amount of products was greater.
Now the forward reaction as well as the backward reaction are talking place simultaneously. This causes the amount of both reactants and products to become the same. This stage is called dynamic equilibrium.

Why amount of reactant and product do not change in a reversible reaction?
This is the law of mass conservation.
How limiting reactant control a reaction?
Using an excess of another reactant limits a reactant.
What is the definetions of limiting reactant in chemistery?
In a chemical reaction the limiting reactant is the reactant that there is the least of in the reaction; it determines the amount of product formed. In a chemical reaction it is the reactant that gets completely "used up"
After a chemical reaction starts when will a chemical reaction end?
When the limiting reactant is completely used up. A limiting reactant is the reactant that determines the amount of product. To determine this use the balanced chemical reaction with the masses of the reactants to determine the moles of product formed. The reactant that forms the least amount of product will be the limiting reactant.
Does the amount of reactant affect the amounts of product?
The more reactant, the faster the reaction The less reactant, the slower the reaction hope that clears it up for you
What is limiting reactant and how control the amount of product formed?
The limiting reactant is that reactant in a chemical reaction that will be used up first. Put another way, it is the reactant that is in the smallest supply. The way it controls the amount of product formed is that once it is used up, no more product can be formed, so the amount of product formed ultimately depends on the amount of the limiting reactant.
Why is it necessary to determine if a reactant is a limiting reagent reaction?
The amount of product formed will be limited reagent in a reaction
Are more product produced at a chemical reaction at equilibrium?
The amount of product is determined by the limiting reactant. Once one reactant is used completely, no more product can be produced.
The amount of product or yield that a reaction is capable of forming is dependent of the quantity of the?
Limiting reactant
Why is limiting reactants important in stoichiometry?
Limiting reactants are the reactants that are used up first. And once they are used up, they stop, or limit, the reaction. So the amount of product that can be produced depends on the limiting reactant. The other reactant, the one in excess, would predict a larger amount of product. But once we produce the amount of product predicted by the limiting reactant. The limiting reactant is used up and the reaction stops.
Why is it necessary to determine if a reactant is a limiting reagent in a reaction?
The amount of product formed will be limited by the amount of the limiting reagent.
Why is it necessary to determine if a reactant is a limited reagent in a reaction?
The amount of product formed will be limited by the amount of the limiting reagent.
