Question

Which of the following according to Le-Chatelier’s principle is correct?

• A. Increase in temperature favours the endothermic reaction
• B. Increase in temperature favours the exothermic reaction
• C. Increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium in that side in which number of gaseous moles increases
• D. All of the above are true

Hint:

Heat acts as a reactant in endothermic reactions and as a product in exothermic reactions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

According to Le-Chatelier’s principle, increase in temperature shifts equilibrium in the direction of the endothermic reaction. Options (B) and (C) are incorrect, hence (D) is also wrong.
