📐 Dynamic Equilibrium — Rate-Time Graph

Graph showing forward reaction rate decreasing and reverse reaction rate increasing over time until they meet at equilibrium where both rates are equal

Figure 1: At equilibrium, the forward and backward reaction rates are equal. Concentrations remain constant but both reactions still occur.
