detailed solution

Correct option is C

The variation of standard equilibrium constant with temperature is given by

dlnKeq°dT=ΔH°RT2 which on integeration gives lnKeq°=-ΔH°RT+ constant

The slope of the graph between lnKeq° and 1/T shown in the figure is positive. The slope as given by the above equation is -ΔH/R This means H is negative, hence, the reaction is exothermic.
