Question

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium.What effect will adding CO2 have on the system?
CO2(g)+ C(graphite)⇌ 2 CO(g)

Accepted Answer

B)  The equilibrium constant will decrease. 
C)  The reaction will shift to the left in the direction of reactants. 
D)  The equilibrium constant will increase. 
E)  The reaction will shift to the right in the direction of products.
