an extremely soluable salt is added to water, and all of it dissolves. is it at equilibrium? explin.
Answered by DrBob222
No it is not at equilibrium because there is no solid present. Note the correct spelling of soluble.

and if the salt would only be slightly soluble then it would still not be at equilibrium, correct?
Answered by DrBob222
To be at equilibrium the solution must have dissolved all it can dissolve and some solid must be present.
