The statement that describes effect on the reaction of increasing the temperature is "the rate of the forward reaction would decrease."
What is temperature?
Temperature is the measurement of a body's level of hotness or coolness.
The average kinetic energy of the system is measured by temperature. The kinetic energy of particles in a matter raises as they move faster, which boosts the temperature of the system. When two bodies of differing temperatures come into touch, heat is the energy exchanged between them.
The term "exothermic reaction" refers to a reaction that releases energy. An exothermic reaction, in other words, produces heat. The temperature of the reaction will rise unless it is cooled in some way. When you use an external heater to raise the temperature, it slows or reverses the reaction, reducing the number of products while increasing the amount of reactants.
Hence the correct answer is D.
