The forward and backward reactions are equal.
At equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction, resulting in a constant concentration of reactants and products. The system is in a state of balance, where the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant over time.
The forward and backward reactions are equal.
Equilibrium is pushed to the reactant side
Enzymes do not affect the equilibrium constant of a reaction. They only speed up the rate at which the reaction reaches equilibrium, but do not change the position of the equilibrium itself.
At 500K, the reaction rate will increase as temperature rises, following the Arrhenius equation. This increase in temperature will also influence the equilibrium position of the reaction if it is a reversible reaction. Higher temperatures can sometimes shift the equilibrium towards the products or reactants, depending on the enthalpy change.

A quantity that characterizes the position of equilibrium for a reversible reaction; its magnitude is equal to the mass action expression at equilibrium. K varies with temperature.
The forward and backward reactions are equal.
The nature of the reactants and products does not affect the equilibrium of a chemical reaction when it is changed. The equilibrium constant is a characteristic of a particular reaction at a given temperature and does not depend on the identities of the substances involved.
Equilibrium is pushed to the reactant side
No, the equilibrium constant for the forward reaction is not equal to the equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction. Instead, they are inversely related. If ( K_f ) is the equilibrium constant for the forward reaction, then the equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction ( K_r ) is given by ( K_r = \frac{1}{K_f} ). This relationship reflects the change in the direction of the reaction.
When a reverse reaction is at equilibrium, its equilibrium constant (K) is the reciprocal of the equilibrium constant for the forward reaction. This means that if the forward reaction has an equilibrium constant ( K_f ), the reverse reaction will have an equilibrium constant ( K_r = \frac{1}{K_f} ). Therefore, the value of the equilibrium constant for the reverse reaction reflects the ratio of the concentrations of reactants to products at equilibrium, but inverted.

An equilibrium constant
The temperature at which a reaction reaches equilibrium can vary depending on the specific reaction and its conditions. For some reactions, the temperature at equilibrium may be higher, while for others it may be lower. The equilibrium temperature is determined by the enthalpy change of the reaction and the equilibrium constant.
The equilibrium constant for a reaction is a measure of the ratio of products to reactants at equilibrium. It is denoted by K. The equilibrium constant for a reaction involving multiple reactions can be calculated by multiplying the individual equilibrium constants of the reactions.
