How does reaction quotient predicts the direction of a reaction?

The reaction quotient is the ratio of products to reactants not at equilibrium. If the system is at equilibrium then Q becomes Keq the equilibrium constant. Q = products/reactants If Q < Keq then there are more reactants then products so the system must shift toward the products to achieve equilibrium. If Q > Keq then there are more products than reactants and the system must shift toward the reactants to reach equilibrium.
