The forward reaction of a reversible reaction is exothermic. The reaction is carried out at a low temperature. What are the effects on the yield at equilibrium and on the rate of reaction?
The yield is higher and the rate of reaction is faster
The yield is higher and the rate of reaction is slower
The yield is lower and the rate of reaction is faster
The yield is lower and the rate of reaction is slower
