Price equilibrium, or market equilibrium, occurs when the quantity of a good or service demanded by consumers equals the quantity supplied by producers at a specific price level. At this point, there is no tendency for the price to change, as the market clears, meaning all goods produced are sold. If the price is above equilibrium, excess supply leads to downward pressure on prices, while prices below equilibrium create excess demand, pushing prices up. Thus, market equilibrium represents a stable state in economic transactions.

Why price ceiling and price floor is binding?
A price ceiling is binding when it is below the equilibrium price. It is the legal maximum price, so the market wants to reach equilibrium (which is above that) but can't legally. If it were above the equilibrium price it would not be binding because the market would reach equilibrium and the ceiling would have no effect. A price floor is binding when it is above the equilibrium price. You can use similar reasoning to that above. It is the legal minimum price. the market wants to reach equilibrium below that but can't legally.
