Detailed Solution

When CO combines with hemoglobin  ΔG < 0, i.e., reaction is spontaneous (in forward side). More O2 is released. Thus, O2-carrying capacity of hemoglobin is reduced.
It does not involve H2O hence no effect of addition of H2O

Also, ΔG=2.303RTlogK
Hence. increase in temperature makes ΔG more negative.
