Which consequence results when increasing temperatures of exothermic reactions?

A)Equilibrium shifts towards the reactants
B)Forward and reverse rates increase equally
C)Catalyst effectiveness significantly increases
D)Activation energy decreases exponentially

💡 Explanation

Increasing temperature favors endothermic processes due to Le Chatelier's principle; the equilibrium shifts toward the reactants through increased reverse reaction rate, because it relieves the applied heat rather than favoring forward reaction. Therefore, reactants increase rather than products.
