Look at it this way in equation form.
A + B ==> C + heat
So increasing heat drives it to the left so as to make less heat.
For an exothermic reaction, what effect will increasing the temperature have on the equilibrium?
A. There will be a shift toward the products.
B. There will be a shift toward the reactants.
C.There will not be a shift in equilibrium.
D. Not enough information is given.
