Effect of Concentration Changes on Equilibrium

Easy General Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium

Consider the following chemical equilibrium reaction:

A(g) + B(g) <=> C(g) + D(g)

At a certain temperature, the equilibrium constant (K_c) for this reaction is found to be 4. If the concentrations of the reactants A and B are both increased, what will happen to the equilibrium position of the reaction according to Le Chatelier's principle?

The equilibrium will shift to the right.

The equilibrium will shift to the left.

The equilibrium will remain unchanged.

The reaction will proceed to completion.
