3. Chemists always want to find ways to increase the yield of a reaction. equilibrium is the chemist's worst enemy! (At least when a reaction has a small equilibrium constant. Two common ways for a chemist to increase the yield of a reaction are described below. Explain why they increase the yield. It would appear that a. Method 1: Add more of one of the reactants. b. Method 2: Remove one of the products as it is being made.
