I think, here it must be exothermic in place of endothermic.

Exothermic is the correct one.

Oxidation of SO2 toSO3 is an exothermic reaction so option D is correct.

So2+o2=So3
H= negative
According to Le-Chatlier principle, exothermic reactions are favoured at low temperatures. The number of moles' are decreasing in reaction. Such reactions, according to Le Chateler principle are favoured at high' pressure.
This reaction will give maximum yield at reduced temperature and high pressure.
