According to Le Chatelier's principle, adding more reactant to a system at equilibrium
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. shifts the equilibrium towards the products
The system counteracts the increase in reactant concentration by consuming it.
Answer: shifts the equilibrium towards the products.
Why not the others: shifts it towards the reactants: the system reduces the added reactant. changes the equilibrium constant: depends only on temperature. has no effect: the position of equilibrium shifts.
