Rate of which reaction increases with temperature?

(a) Exothermic reaction

(b) Endothermic reaction

(c) (a) and (b) both

(d) None of the above

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer : (c) (a) and (b) both

Explanation :

In general the increase in temperature lowers the activation energy of the reaction. Lowering in activation energy means the increase in the rate of reaction. 

Increase in the temperature will not always increase the rate of the reaction.

Increase in temperature is act as catalyst which decreases the activation energy. 


c) (a) and (b) both
