In an exothermic reaction, an increase in temperature favors the formation of products T/F?

Question

In an exothermic reaction, an increase in temperature favors the formation of products T/F (True or False)

Answer 1

False - an exothermic reaction is trying to release energy. If you add energy to the reaction you put stress on the equilibrium. This would cause the equilibrium to shift to relieve the stress. The shift would be toward the reactant side since energy is required to form the reactants.

Answer 2

false, if u increase the temperature of an exothermic reaction it will favor the formation of reactants
