Does increasing or decreasing the temperature favour the reaction in the endothermic reaction?
Increasing
1 of 8
Why does the equilibrium shift?
To lower the temperatures by taking in energy
2 of 8
Decreasing the temperature favours?
The exothermic reaction
3 of 8
If the forward reaction is exothermic...
An INCREASE in TEMPERATURE will DECREASE the amount of products formed
4 of 8
If the forward reaction is exothermic...
A DECREASE in TEMPERATURE will INCREASE the amount of products formed
5 of 8
If the forward reaction is endothermic...
An INCREASE in TEMPERATURE will INCREASE the amount of products formed
6 of 8
If the forward reaction is endothermic...
A DECREASE in TEMPERATURE will DECREASE the amount of products formed
7 of 8
For example, for 2NO2 <---> N204, the forward reaction is endothermic, so increasing the temperature will...
Produce more NO2 (reactant)
