    (1) is wrong because at equilibrium both the reactant and the product are still being created they are just being created at the same rate meaning that

    (3) is the answer. As the concentrations do not change, but the solution/system is still in dynamic equilibrium.

    I agree with the answer below (partial credit would go to her/him I guess)

    My answer I guess is more visual to explain

    1 says - - > | <--

    2 is assuming because not all chemical system are the same although this could be true in some cases

    3 says - - > which is true because that's the def of Equilibrium

    <--

    4-I don't get that one-sorry
