    It favors the forward reaction.

    Explanation:

    According to Le Chatelier's Principle, when a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation, the system will react in order to counteract the effect of such perturbation.

    If more reactant is added, the system will try to decrease its concentration. It will do so by favoring the forward reaction, decreasing the concentration of the reactant and increasing the concentration of the products, in order to re-establish the equilibrium.
