In a reaction where heat is a product, what happens if the temperature is decreased?

In a reaction where heat is a product, what happens if the temperature is decreased?

Step 1: Understand that in an exothermic reaction, heat is produced as a product.
Step 2: Recognize that the reaction can be represented as: Reactants → Products + Heat.
Step 3: Know that decreasing the temperature means removing heat from the system.
Step 4: According to Le Chatelier's principle, if a change is made to a system at equilibrium, the system will adjust to counteract that change.
Step 5: Since heat is a product, removing heat (by decreasing temperature) will shift the equilibrium to the right.
Step 6: This shift to the right means that more products will be formed.
