← ScienceWhich equilibrium shift results when heating ester synthesis?
A)Reverse reaction rate increases more✓
B)Forward reaction rate increases more
C)Equilibrium shifts lowers temperature
D)No rate change; equilibrium constant stable
💡 Explanation
Heating favors endothermic reactions; ester synthesis is exothermic; therefore, equilibrium shifts to reactants because higher temperature favors increased rate of the *reverse reaction* pathway rather than the forward (ester formation).
