Solution
The correct option is C depends on temperature only and decreases with increase in temperature Since, the number of moles in gaseous state in reactant and product side is same hence, no effect of pressure and rate depends only on temperature. Further the degree of dissociation increases with increase in temperature .Hence, high temperature favours forward reaction or the rate of backward reaction decrease with rise in temperature.
