Dear Student,

In parallel reactions, the reactant decomposes in more than one way
 
Example :

In seuqntial reaction, the formation of product from reactant involves the formation of intermediate first and then the product is obtained
 For eg
 decomposition of ethylene oxide:(CH2)O →k1CH3CHO →k2 CO + CH4In a reversible reaction, the reactants react to form products, and the products react back to give the reactant molecules
 For eg  N2 + 3H2 ↔ 2NH3
