Detailed Solution

Given KP <  KC

We know KP = KC (RT)Δn

given  

\large \frac{{{K_P}}}{{{K_C}}} < 1

only when Δng is negative.

 

Δng = np (g) - nR (g)

\large \because \Delta n_g

is negative

np (g) < nR (g)

 

From left to right i.e. forward reaction involves  decrease  in volume.

According to Le-Chatlier's principle reactions involving decrease in volume are favoured at high pressure.
