Consider the reversible chemical equilibrium for the synthesis of ammonia: N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g) + heat.
If the volume of the reaction container is decreased at a constant temperature, what is the predicted effect according to Le Chatelier's principle?
- The equilibrium constant (K_eq) increases
- There is no change in the equilibrium position
- The equilibrium shifts toward the products (right)
- The equilibrium shifts toward the reactants (left)
