    Answer: The equilibrium will shift in the direction of NH_3

    Explanation:

    The chemical equation for the aqueous solution of ammonia follows:

    NH_3+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NH_4^++OH^-

    According to Le-chtelier’s principle:

    If there is any change in the variables of the reaction, then the equilibrium will shift in that direction of equilibrium to minimize the effect.

    If we add more amount of NH_4^+ to the solution, more of the products will be present. But according to Le-chtelier’s principle, to minimize this effect, the equilibrium will shift in the backward direction that in the direction of NH_3

    Hence, the equilibrium will shift in the direction of NH_3
