I got you plato fam the answer is C

Claire Barrett · Answer 2

From the balanced chemical reaction given above, it can be noted that there are 2 moles of gases in the reactant to form 2 moles of product which is also a gas. Therefore, even with the increase in pressure, there will be no shift in the reaction. The answer is therefore letter C.
