What is the effect of increasing temperature on an endothermic reaction at equilibrium?

A. Shifts equilibrium to the right
B. Shifts equilibrium to the left
C. No effect on equilibrium
D. Reaction rate decreases

Answer: Shifts equilibrium to the right

Additional Information: Increasing temperature favors the endothermic direction, shifting equilibrium to the right.
