The reaction system      CS2(g) + 4H2(g) ⟷⟷ CH4(g) + 2H2S(g) is at equilibrium. Which of the following statements describes the behavior of the system if the partial pressure of hydrogen is doubled? Group of answer choices As equilibrium is reestablished, the partial pressure of hydrogen decreases. As equilibrium is reestablished, the partial pressure of hydrogen sulfide decreases. As equilibrium is reestablished, all the partial pressures will decrease. As equilibrium is reestablished, the partial pressure of methane, CH4, decreases. As equilibrium is reestablished, the partial pressure of carbon disulfide increases
