a) The equilibrium shifts forward
Answered by GPT 3.5
I apologize for the confusion. If a small amount of product is added to an equilibrium system, the equilibrium will shift backward in order to reduce the concentration of the product and reach a new equilibrium. Therefore, the correct answer is b) The equilibrium shifts backward.
