Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a reaction where heat is absorbed (endothermic), what is the effect of increasing temperature?
  • Step 1: Understand that an endothermic reaction absorbs heat from its surroundings.
  • Step 2: Recognize that increasing the temperature means adding more heat to the system.
  • Step 3: Apply Le Chatelier's Principle, which states that if a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it will shift to counteract the disturbance.
  • Step 4: Since the reaction absorbs heat, adding more heat will shift the equilibrium to the right, favoring the formation of products.
  • Step 5: Conclude that increasing the temperature in an endothermic reaction promotes the production of more products.
