2Cp(aq) /=\ Cp2(aq)+heat
a This is an exothermic reaction.
b By Le Châtelier’s principle, a change in temperature is a
stress. By increasing the amount of heat, Keq is lowered.
c Cp is more stable than Cp2 at any given temperature.
d When the equilibrium shifts to the left (reactant), the
reaction absorbs heat.

The answer is D, but if you want an explanation
A. This is true, the rxn gives off heat
B. This is true as well. If you increase the temp, there is less need for the product of Cp2 and heat, therefore less is made and Keq decreases
C. True as well. This reaction is exothermic, so it naturally wants to occur. Heat is easier to give off than to put in
D. Not true, If the equilibrium shifted to the left, it would want to shift back to the right and produce more heat, not absorb it.
