← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when cooling a catalyst-using exothermic reaction at equilibrium?
A)Products increase shifting equilibrium right✓
B)Reactants decrease shifting equilibrium left
C)Catalyst deactivates affecting activation energy
D)Equilibrium constant increases increasing rate
💡 Explanation
The system shifts towards product formation due to Le Chatelier's principle; decreasing temperature favors the exothermic reaction. Therefore, products increase because the system releases heat; rather than an equilibrium constant shift impacting equilibrium immediately.
