According to Le Chatelier's principle, an increase in pressure in a gaseous system will shift the equilibrium position toward the side with fewer moles of gas. This is because the system will respond to counteract the change by favoring the direction that reduces pressure. If both sides of the reaction contain an equal number of gas moles, the pressure increase will have little to no effect on the equilibrium position.
