Explanation / Answer

According to Le chatelier's principle for exothermic reaction increase in temperature will shift the equilibrium towards left side.

Increasing pressure will shift the equilibrium towards less numbers of gaseous molecules side.

If the reaction equilibrium moving towards left side then the value of equilibrium constant is decreases.

Hence correct option is,

* Decrease the value of equilibrium constant.
