If a reaction creates far more products than reactants, the numerator is large and the denominator is small. That means Keq will be large. So when Keq is large, equilibrium is to the far right of the reaction. A reaction that goes to completion would have an infinite Keq, since the concentration of reactants goes all the way to zero.
If few products form, and many reactants remain, the numerator is small and the denominator is large. So a small Keq means that equilibrium is far to the left.

What does the term spontaneous mean in a chemical reaction?
This is a very fast reaction.
What does s o mean in a reaction?
the reaction increased in order (APEX)
Does a large equilibrium constant mean that the reaction must be rapid?
NO!!! A large Equilibrium Constant means that nearly all the reactants have been used up to reach the equilibrium. Conversely a small K(eq) indicates that equilibrium is reached when very little of the reactants have been used.
What does initial reaction mean?
An initial reaction is like a first take in of everything.
What does a double arrow mean in a chemical reaction?
Equilibrium, where the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
What combination of factors is most likely to produce a large value for the F-ratio?
a large mean differecnce and large sample variance
What combination of factors is most likely to produce a large value for the F ratio?
a large mean differecnce and large sample variance
What does it mean to have a ratio of 3?
It means having a value that is three times as large.
What does a large Rf value mean?
it indicates that the pigments were adsorbed strongly
What does it mean if the activation energy is high related to traveling?
If the activation energy elated to travelling is high, then a large amount of energy is required to start a chemical reaction. After the reaction is initiated, less energy is needed.
What is the reaction of characters in twilight?
That depends on what you mean? Do you mean the relationship or reaction between the characters or the general reaction from the readers?
What does a high chi square value mean?
It means the data deviated a large amount from the model or from what you thought.
Origin of vat?
It could mean a very large container for holding liquids or VALUE ADDED TAX.
What does standard deviation value indicate?
The standard deviation for a set of data is a measure of how much the individual observations are spread about their mean. A small value indicates that they are all tightly packed around the mean value whereas a large value indicates that the observations are not so close together.
What does it mean if the change in enthalpy value for a chemical reaction is positive?
Change in enthalpy value for a chemical reaction is positive is because,there loose of electron(s) in the reaction, and that will change the enthalpy of that particular element from negetive,neutral to positive.
What is a picture of a replacement reaction?
i mean what is a replacement reaction
What does gough mean?
According to the online Urban Dictionary: Gough means an acute involuntary reaction caused by overeating large amounts of greasy, low grade food.
