If more ammonia is added... Equilibrium will shift to the left (reactant) according to LCP...

Answer is D

LCP, Le Chateliers Principle would do the opposite to what is to happen such as to re establish equilibrium.

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Step-by-step explanation:


2N_2+3H_2\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.Whenever we increase the concentration of any species in an equilibrium ,there is a shift in an equilibrium in the direction where decrease in concentration is taking place.

So, when we add ammonia gas into the system , equilibrium will get shift in backward direction that is towards reactants.
