Answer: The reaction mixture contains large amounts of reactants

Step-by-step explanation:

The equilibrium constant (K) tells the degree to which a chemical reaction will progress.

So, a very small equilibrium constant (K≪ 1) tells of a reaction that has the concentration of the products as small, while the concentration of the reactants is large.
