State
A very large K means a reaction favors products heavily at equilibrium; a very small K means it favors reactants heavily; neither implies the reaction is fast.
Show
K = 10¹⁵ predicts an equilibrium mixture that is essentially all product, however slowly it gets there.
Watch for
A large K describes equilibrium position, not reaction speed — that is Unit 9's separate question.
