What happens to the yield on increasing temperature?(a) Increases(b) No change(c) Decreases(d) None of the mentionedI got this question in examination.My question is taken from Kinetic and Thermodynamics of Hydrogenation Reaction in section Hydrogenation of Unit Processes

Answer»

The correct answer is (c) Decreases

The BEST explanation: In general, then, increasing TEMPERATURE adversely affects the equilibrium position, so that the maximum ULTIMATE yield is decreased; but it affects favourably the speed of a reaction, so that in a given time a greater QUANTITY of product can be OBTAINED.
