    • A reversible reaction in one where the products can re-form the reactants. The reactants. The reaction can go both ways
    • For example:
      A rection with B to form C and D
      C and D are able to react to form A and B
    • If the forward reaction is exothermic then the backward reaction will be endothermic
    • The amount of energy transferred is the same for both the forward and reverse reaction
    • In a closed system, a reversible reaction can reach dynamic equilibrium
      This is where the forwards and reverse reactions are occurring at the same rate and the concentrations that are reacting remain constant
