equilibrium constants are thermodynamic quantities that vary only with _________ |
temperature |
|
what do large equilibrium constants indicate? |
most of the reactants are converted to products (more products) (products favored) |
|
what do small equilibrium constants indicate? |

when are reactants and products equally favored? |
only when k=1 |
|
if k < 1…... |
reactants are in excess of products |
|
if k > 1….. |
products are in excess of reactants |
