Correct Option: B

According to Le Chatelier's Principle, if the concentration of reactants in a chemical equilibrium is increased, the system will shift in the direction that reduces the concentration of reactants. This means the reaction will shift toward the reactants to consume the additional reactants and establish a new equilibrium position.
