has already reached equilibrium. The position of the equilibrium was shifted by performing the reaction in a metal cylinder fitted with a piston, which is compressed to
decrease the total volume of the system. Choose the correct effect on equilibrium (it will shift to the right, will shift to the left, or it will not be affected).
