When does a chemical reaction reach equilibrium?
when products and reactants are being formed at the same rati
when there are exactly as many products as there are reactants
when all the reactants have become products
when the products and reactants stop forming each other
when all the products have become reactants again

A chemical reaction reaches equilibrium when products and reactants are being formed at the same rate.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction is in a steady state, when the products and reactants concentrations are constant, the ratio is constant. Equilibrium occurs when the chemical reactions do not transform all reactants into products: most of the reactions achieve equilibrium or dynamic balance that contains both reagents and products. Another way to define equilibrium is by saying that the system is in equilibrium and the forward and backward reaction happen in the constant rate.

Equilibrium, not necessarily refer that the reagents and products are the same. This means that reaction reaches the point where their concentrations will not vary over time because the forward and backward reaction resemble the same. For example, the below displayed response or system is in balance. Reactor A is in equilibrium with product B by a simple chemical equation.

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.
