Answer : Option C
Explanation :
According to Le Chatelier's principle the system will react in such a way that it minimizes the effect of deviation from equilibrium. Since, ice has the more volume than water equilibrium shifts towards water (less volume) side thereby, minimizing the effect of pressure and regaining a new equilibrium.
