The correct answer is:
If both assertion and reason are false.
Increase in pressure favours melting of ice into water because at higher pressure melting point of ice is lowered.
According to Le-Chatelier's principle, if pressure is increased the equilibrium will shift in direction which produces smaller number of moles.
