Expert Solution
Step 1

Le Chatelier's principle:

This principle is used to predict the effect of a change in conditions on chemical equilibrium. This principle states that when any system at equilibrium for a long period of time is subjected to a change in concentration, temperature, volume, or pressure the system changes to a new equilibrium, and this change partly counteracts the applied change.
