Both products and reactants will be present in an equilibrium reaction unless K is very small or very large.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an equilibrium reaction, both reactants and products are present in significant amounts unless the value of the equilibrium constant (K) is very small or very large. If K is very small, it means the reactants are favored and very few products will be formed, while if K is very large, it means the products are favored and very little reactants will be present.
