Because it means that the equilibrium mixture contains more product than reactants.
Keq = 1 indicates that the system is in equilibrium, meaning the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. This implies that the concentration of products and reactants in the reaction mixture are stable and not changing over time.
Le Chatelier's principle predicts that if more products are added to a system at equilibrium, the system will shift in the direction that consumes the additional products. This shift will help offset the increase in products and restore the system back to equilibrium.
Adding inert gas to an equilibrium system does not affect the distribution of reactants and products. The inert gas does not participate in the reaction and therefore does not change the concentrations of the reactants and products in the system.
The equilibrium of the system will be upset.
Changing the temperature of the system. Altering the pressure of the system. Adding or removing reactants or products from the system. Introducing a catalyst that shifts the equilibrium position. Changing the volume of the system. Modifying the concentration of reactants or products in the system.

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.
when a system is in equilibrium it is stable and all its parts function smoothly
The concentrations of reactants and products are modified.
the reaction is likely to be product-favored, meaning the equilibrium constant (Kc) is greater than 1. This suggests that the forward reaction is favored under the given conditions. The system will resist changes that disrupt the equilibrium and will tend to shift back towards the reactants if conditions change.

An equilibrium system is one in which the forward and reverse reactions proceed at the same rate, resulting in no overall change in the concentrations of reactants and products. At equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant, although the reactions continue to occur. The equilibrium state is dynamic, with molecules constantly interconverting between reactants and products.
The system is in equilibrium.
Chemical equilibrium shifts to favor products when the concentration of products is decreased or the concentration of reactants is increased. This can be achieved by removing some of the product or adding more reactant to the system. Le Chatelier's principle states that a system at equilibrium will respond to changes in concentration, pressure, or temperature by shifting in a direction that helps restore equilibrium.
The equilibrium of the system will be upset.
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.
