A dynamic equilibrium will be established any time a reaction is reversed. True or false

This is true.
Once reversible reactions (one that can go A+B <--> C+D) have reached a point where there is not net change in the products or reactants, the reaction is in dynamic equilibrium. At this point, the rate of the forward reaction (A+B->) is equal to the rate of the backwards reaction (C+D->).
So if we were to have the reverse reaction (C+D <--> A+B), it is imaginable that a dynamic equilibrium would be set up since we have the same products/reactants doing the same reactions (and establishing the same equilibrium).
