Solution

The correct option is B favoured by an increase in temperature and decrease in pressure
In catalytic reforming process, high octane number reformate is formed which is the main component of the motor, fuel, aviation gasoline or aromatic rich feedstock. Favourable Conditions for the reaction are High temperature, Low pressure and low space velocity.
