The correct answer is: Reduces the formation of ammonia
Kp =n2NH3nN2×nH23× PΣnΔn

At constant pressure, with the introduction inert gas Σn increases. Since Δn=2, therefore on increasing Σn PΣnΔn increases, but Kp remain constant, hence no. of

moles of N2 g & H2 g are increased and backward reaction is favoured.
