If you add more reactant then the reaction goes to the products (vice versa).ex. 2 SO2(g)+O2(g)↔2 SO3(g)If more reactants were added to this reaction then the reaction will go to the products. Therefore Q<K.You can also see that when reactants are added the denominator ofQ=[SO3]2[SO2]2[O2] gets bigger as Q gets
