The effect of an increase in temperature on an ... - SS3 Chemistry Chemical Equilibrium Question
The effect of an increase in temperature on an endothermic reaction at equilibrium (ΔH > 0) is:
A
Shifts the equilibrium position to the left
B
Shifts the equilibrium position to the right
C
Does not affect the equilibrium position
D
Decreases the value of the equilibrium constant (Kc)
correct option: b
For an endothermic reaction (ΔH > 0), increasing the temperature will favour the endothermic direction (the forward reaction). As a result, the equilibrium position will shift to the right, favouring the formation of products.
