    • A + B to C + D
    • A to B
    • C to D
    • C + D to A + B
  11. What does the reverse reaction in a reversible system convert?

    • Reactants to products
    • Elements to atoms
    • Products to reactants

  12. What defines a reversible chemical reaction?

    • Stops immediately
    • Runs both ways
    • Needs no energy
    • Releases no heat
