Answer:

equilibrium will shift to the right, and more NH3 will be formed

Step-by-step explanation:

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ---> 2NH3(g)

1 mol +3 mol 2 mol

4 mol 2 mol

When we increase the pressure, the pressure will try to restore old value, so it has to become lower. Pressure is lower when number of particles is less

4 <2, so equilibrium will shift to the right, and more NH3 will be formed.
