the reaction so2 cl2 to so2cl2 is exothermic and reversible

The reaction, $$S{O_2} + C{l_2} \to S{O_2}C{l_2}$$ is exothermic and reversible. A mixture of $$S{O_2}\left( g \right),C{l_2}\left( g \right)$$ and $$S{O_2}C{l_2}\left( l \right)$$ is at equilibrium in a closed container. Now a certain quantity of extra $$S{O_2}$$ is introduced into the container, the volume remaining the same. Which of the following is/are true ?

A. The pressure inside the container will not change.

B. The temperature will not change.

C. The temperature will increase.

D. The temperature will decrease.

Answer : The temperature will increase.

Solution :
By addition of $$S{O_2}$$ equilibrium will shift to $$RHS$$ which is exothermic. Hence temperature will increase.
