: This means for an [[endothermic]] forward [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] a higher [[temperature]] will result in more [[product]] being formed. However, for an [[exothermic]] forward [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] less product will be formed as the back [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] will be [[endothermic]] and would increase its [[Rate of Reaction|rate]] with higher [[temperature]].
=====Pressure and Equilibrium Position=====
: For [[reaction]]s involving a [[gas]] as either one of the [[reactant]]s or [[product]]s changing the pressure will affect the position of '''[[Dynamic Equilibrium|dynamic equilibrium''']].
: The number of [[mole]]s of [[gas]] in the [[reactant]]s and [[product]]s will determine which direction of [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] is favoured by higher [[Gas Pressure|pressure]].
: If the forward [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] [[product|produces]] more [[mole]]s of [[gas]] than the back [[Chemical Reaction|reaction]] then high [[Gas Pressure|pressure]] will reduce the amount of [[product]]s formed.
