In a closed system at equilibrium, if the pressure is increased, what will happen to the equilibrium position if there are more moles of gas on the reactant side?
Shift to the right
Shift to the left
No change
Increase in temperature
Increasing the pressure will shift the equilibrium to the side with fewer moles of gas, which in this case is the right side.
