1. neither the forward nor the reverse reactions have stopped. Since the consumption rate of A, B, C, or D is the same as the production rate of the same species, the concentration of neither A, nor B, nor C, nor D is changed. This is the DEFINITION of chemistry- equilibrium.
Whatever you will study in the future, please always remember all the DEFINITIONS.
