For the reversible reaction,
the equilibrium shifts in forward direction
A
by increasing the concentration of 
B
by decreasing the pressure
C
by decreasing the concentrations of 
and 
and D
by increasing pressure and decreasing temperature
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
According to Le-Chatelier's principle, equilibrium shifts in the opposite direction to undo the
change. 
On increasing pressure, equilibrium shifts in the forward direction where number of moles decreases. It is an example of exothermic reaction therefore decreasing temperature favours the forward direction.
