In a particular time, if the forward and backward reactions of a reversible reactions take place in the same rate, there would be not a visible change (i.e. no net change) in the system, and that system is said to be at equilibrium.
Extent of the reaction measures how far a reaction will proceed before establishing equilibrium state .
When a reaction has reached equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. At equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products remain constant over time, but the reaction is still ongoing.
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 is a "balance", if something is in equilibrium then it is in balance. To add "static" is an unnecessary tautology except in the case of a mechanical equilibrium with zero linear momentum.
Zero, if you mean what is the free energy 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.
Not necessarily. The equilibrium constant (K) quantifies the extent of a reaction at equilibrium, but it does not directly correlate to the rate of reaction. A large equilibrium constant indicates that the reaction favors the products at equilibrium, but the rate of the reaction depends on factors such as concentration, temperature, and catalysts.
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.

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.
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.
A double arrow in a chemical reaction indicates that the reaction is reversible, meaning it can proceed in both the forward and reverse directions. The reaction can reach an equilibrium where the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same rate.
