B) Reversibility law
C) Law of equivalence
D) Law of reactant-product equivalence
E) Law of mass action

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The observation that at equilibrium, the reaction quotient (Q) equals the equilibrium constant (K) is representative of the Law of Mass Action. This law states that the equilibrium concentrations of reactants and products are related to their stoichiometry and the value of the equilibrium constant.
