an extremely soluable salt is added to water, and all of it dissolves. is it at equilibrium? explin.
4 answers
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?
To be at equilibrium the solution must have dissolved all it can dissolve and some solid must be present.
thank you
