Question

If the forward reaction goes close to completion and has a high yield, what is the expected value of the equilibrium constant (k)?

Answer 1

If the forward reaction goes close to completion and has a high yield, that means the concentration of products will be higher than the concentration of reactants.

So if the concentration of products is higher, Kc (equilibrium constant) will be greater than 1.

Recall the calculation for the equilibrium constant for reaction. Picture below might help you.
