 Reaction rates and reversible reactions questions and answers

When bromine gas reacts with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the equilibrium represented by the equation: #Br_2(aq)+2OH^(-) (aq) overset(rightarrow)(leftarrow) Br^(-) (aq)+OBr^(-)(aq)+H_2O#(l)is established. What observation would be made if a few drops of sulphuric (VI) acid were added to the equilibrium mixture? Explain.
