If the temperature of an endothermic reaction at equilibrium could be increased instantaneously, what would be the instantaneous effect on Q and K before equilibrium was again achieved?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For an endothermic reaction, increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to favor the products, which increases the value of the equilibrium constant, K. The reaction quotient, Q, remains unchanged immediately after the temperature change because it reflects the ratio of concentrations at that moment, which have not yet adjusted to the new temperature.
