Effect of Increased Reactant Concentration on Equilibrium

Easy General Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium:

A + B <=> C + D

If the concentrations of A and B are increased while the concentrations of C and D remain constant, what will happen to the equilibrium position of the reaction?

The equilibrium will shift to the right.

The equilibrium will shift to the left.

The equilibrium position will not change.

The reaction will stop.
