Correct Option: D
At equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal, meaning the system is in a dynamic balance. However, this does not necessarily imply that the concentrations of reactants and products are equal; rather, they remain constant but can have different values depending on the reaction's stoichiometry.
