The equilibrium constant can tell us how the reaction is going. If the constant is grater than one there are more products than reactants, so the reaction os closer to completion. If the equilibrium constant is less than 1 it shows that there are a lot more products than reactants so the reaction has not really started yet.
need not be..equilibrium constant is just a ratio of relative concentrations of products (multiplication of concentration in case of more than one products) to the concentration of reactants (multiplication of concentrations of reactants in case of more than one reactants)..the equilibrium concentration can be a very small number or can be a very number as well depending upon the relative concentrations of reactants and products..Unity equilibrium constants is just a special case which shows that the concentrations of products and reactants are equal..
If all the reactants occupy more volume than all of the products, the reverse reaction will be favored. If all the reactants occupy less volume than all of the products, the forward reaction will be favored. If the products and reagents have the same volume, the equilibrium will not change.
High Kp ( equilibrium constant of product) means that the reaction favors the product formation. More products are formed.
While the earth and the sun are roughly at steady state (the output of the sun stays fairly constant and the earth absorbs the energy from it at a fairly constant rate) they are not in equilibrium. To be at equilibrium, they would have to be sending out and receiving equal amounts of energy and mass. The sun sends out far more energy than the earth as well as dumping a lot more mass, in the form of "solar winds" than the earth ever does - thus they are not in equilibrium.

the reaction is at dynamic equilibrium.

nothing
It must be less than the equilibrium price

The concentration of reactants is greater than the concentration of reactants at equilibrium. The concentration of products is less than the concentration of products at equilibrium
The concentration of reactants is less than the concentration of reactants at equilibrium. The concentration of products is greater than the concentration of products at equilibrium.
