Equilibrium: Temparature & Pressure Distrubance - Video Solution

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: 
2 SO2(g)  +  O2(g)  ≡  2 SO3(g); ΔH = -158 kJ

A temperature increase will cause the reaction to proceed in (the) reverse direction; while a pressure increase due to a volume decrease will cause the reaction to proceed in (the) forward direction to regain equilibrium.
