Solution

The correct option is B Both the Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion
An increase in pressure applied to a system at equilibrium, favoures the reaction in the direction that produces smaller number of molecules of gases and decrease in pressure favours the opposite reaction. Hence high pressure is favourable for the reaction in which volume is decreases.
