Consider the endothermic reaction below.

$${\text{5CO(g)}} + {{\text{I}}_2}{{\text{O}}_5}{\text{(g)}} \rightleftharpoons {\text{5C}}{{\text{O}}_2}{\text{(g)}} + {{\text{I}}_2}{\text{(g)}}$$

According to Le Chatelier’s principle, which change would result in an increase in the amount of ${\text{C}}{{\text{O}}_2}$?

A.     Increasing the temperature

B.     Decreasing the temperature

C.     Increasing the pressure

D.     Decreasing the pressure
