In a reversible reaction, both the forward reaction (reactants → products) and the reverse reaction (products → reactants) occur simultaneously. Initially, the forward rate is high (since reactant concentration is high) and the reverse rate is low. As the reaction proceeds, reactant concentration falls and product concentration rises, so the forward rate decreases and the reverse rate increases. Eventually, the two rates become equal.
