Solution

Ice WaterThis reaction is an endothermic reaction in the forward direction. That means heat energy is absorbed.When Pressure is applied on this reaction, As P is directly proportional to temperature, on increasing the pressure, temperature is also increased. Increase of temperature means more of the ice is converted to water.
