X_2(g) + 4Y_2(g)  ⇋ 2XY_4(g)  is less than zero.

Formation of XY_4(g) will be favoured at

(a) high temperature and high pressure

(b) low pressure and low temperature

(c) high temperature and low pressure

(d) high pressure and low temperature

Answer 1

The correct option is : (d) high pressure and low temperature

Explanation:

The reaction is favoured in forward direction at low temperature and high pressure.
