In a reaction at equilibrium, what happens to the enthalpy if the temperature is

In a reaction at equilibrium, what happens to the enthalpy if the temperature is increased?

In a reaction at equilibrium, what happens to the enthalpy if the temperature is increased?

Step 1: Understand what equilibrium means. It is a state where the forward and reverse reactions happen at the same rate.
Step 2: Know that reactions can be endothermic or exothermic. Endothermic reactions absorb heat, while exothermic reactions release heat.
Step 3: Identify that increasing temperature adds heat to the system.
Step 4: For endothermic reactions, adding heat will shift the equilibrium to the right, favoring the products.
Step 5: As the equilibrium shifts to the right in an endothermic reaction, the overall enthalpy (heat content) of the system increases.
