Question

Extent of a reaction can always be increased by increasing the temperature.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Extent of a reaction can be either increased or decreased by increasing the temperature. It depends on whether the reaction is endothermic in nature or exothermic in nature.
For exothermic reactions, when temperature is increased, the extent of reaction decreases.
For endothermic reactions, when temperature is increased, the extent of reaction increases.
