In the example, we see that there is a heat term on the side of the reactants. This means that the reaction is endothermic and requires heat. Therefore, if heat is added, the reaction will shift to the right side of the reaction, i.e. it will shift to the products.

Answer: If heat is added, the reaction will shift to the products side.
