What happens to the reaction when the temperature of the reaction is increased?
the reaction stops
more product forms
more reactant forms
no change occurs

When the temperature of a reaction is increased, the reaction rate typically increases as well. This is because the reactant molecules have more kinetic energy and therefore collide more frequently and with greater force, leading to more successful collisions and higher reaction rates. In general, increasing the temperature of a reaction can lead to more product formation.
