It is a reaction quotient when the reaction reached equilibrium. If Keq is greater than 1, the mixture contains mostly the products. On the other hand, if Keq is less than 1, the mixture contains the reactants. If the reaction a endothermic and the temperature is increased, then the equilibrium will favor the forward reaction or the formation of more products. Therefore, the Keq will increase.
