Solution

The correct options are
A Increasing the temperature
C Removing some H2
D Adding some C2H6
(a) The reaction is exothermic, increase in temperature will favour the backward reaction according to Le Chatelier’s principle.
(b) Since, change in number of gaseous moles i.e. ng=12=1, so the increase in pressure will favour forward reaction.
(c) Removing H2 (reactant) will favour the backward reaction.
(d) Adding C2H6 (product) will favour the backward reaction.
