Choose the 5 correct statements.

a
A reaction can only reach equilibrium in a closed system.
b

c
Irreversible reactions can only reach equilibrium.
d
Reversible reactions can only reach equilibrium.
e
At equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction is greater than the rate of the reverse reaction.
f
At equilibrium, the rate of the forward and reverse reaction are equal.
g
At equilibrium, the rate of the reverse reaction is greater than the rate of the forward reaction.
h
Macroscopic properties (properties that can be observed with the eye) are constant. It appears as if nothing is happening.
i
Macroscopic properties (properties that can be observed with the eye) are changing.
j
