Which outcome occurs when inert Argon gas increases pressure?

💡 Explanation

Adding an inert gas at constant volume does not shift equilibrium due to the law of mass action, because partial pressures of reactants/products remain unchanged; therefore, adding Argon will not shift equilibrium, rather than altering reaction rates or energy.
