The effect of addition of helium gas to the following reaction in equilibrium state, is : $PCl_5(g) \rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g)$

A
the equilibrium will shift in the forward direction and more of $Cl_{2}$ and $PCl_{3}$ gases will be produced.
B
the equilibrium will go backward due to suppression of dissociation of $PCl_{5}$ .
C
helium will deactivate $PCl_{5}$ and reaction will stop.
D
addition of helium will not affect the equilibrium.
