Detailed Solution

The reaction at equilibrium is:

N2O42NO2

Le Chatelier's principle states that when pressure is applied to a gas reaction, the equilibrium position is shifted to the side with less molecules.

As a result, it will migrate backward, which causes NO2 to become N2O4.

When an inert gas is added at constant pressure, the volume increases and the equilibrium shifts in favour of more molecules, leading to breakdown.

N2O4 decomposition is endothermic. As a result, as the temperature rises, the reaction will advance.

Therefore, the correct option is (D).
