Solution

The correct option is C Increasing the temperature
The process of manufacturing of ammonia is an exothermic process,
On increasing temperature, the reaction will try to move in backward direction to neutralize its effect given by Le chatelier principle.

Hence, increasing the temperature becomes unfavourable condition for manufacturing ammonia.
