Solution

The discussion of temperature of diazotization carried out as:
The diazotization reaction is usually carried out at very low temperatures between $0 - 5 ° C .$
This is due to the reason that at higher temperature diazonium salt is unstable which resulted the formation of unwanted side product.
In contrast, diazonium salt undergoes crystallization at very low temperature.
The above points clearly explains the optimum temperature of diazotization reaction.
