Solution

The correct option is C Low Temperature

Given reaction :
2A (g)+B (g)C (g), H=ve

Since the forward reaction is exothermic reaction i.e. heat is liberated. So, temperature increases in the forward direction.
Decreasing temperature will favor the formation of products in case of exothermic reaction.
Pressure conditions:

Calculating Δng for the reaction:
Δng=13=2
Δng<0

The reaction takes place with reduction in number of gaseous moles in the forward side. When a high pressure is applied ngV. The reaction goes where there is a reduction in number of gaseous moles, that is in the forward direction.
So, for the yield of product to be the high i.e. C , a high pressure should be applied
