Answer: False, I believe.
Explanation: If a Hypothesis is proven correct, then another experiment to strengthen that Hypothesis is should be done.

Based on Le Chatelier's principle, if a system at equilibrium is disturbed by changes in the temperature, pressure or concentration, then the equilibrium will shift in a direction to undo the effect of the induced change.
The given reaction is endothermic i.e, heat is supplied:
CH4(g) + H2O (g) + heat ↔ 3H2(g) + CO(g)
a) When the temperature is lowered, heat is being removed from the system. The reaction will move in a direction to produce more heat i.e. to the left.
Hence, the pressure of CH4 will increase and equilibrium will shift to the left
b) When the temperature is raised, heat is being added to the system. The reaction will move in a direction to consume the added heat i.e. to the right.
Hence, the pressure of CO will increase and equilibrium will shift to the right
1) As for its chemical composition, coal is a mixture of high-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic compounds, such as benzene C6H6, toluene C6H5CH3, xylene C6H4(CH3)2, naphthalene C10H8, anthracene C14H10, pyrene C16H10 and their derivatives with high mass fraction of carbon, as well as of water and volatile substances.
2) The coal asphaltenes have a relatively narrow MWD (full width ≈ 150 amu) with an average molecular weight of ≈340 amu. The petroleum asphaltenes display a broader MWD (full width ≈ 300 amu) and are heavier on average (≈680 amu).
