Answer:

The reaction in low temperature will favor maximum yield.

Explanation:

Methanol is mainly produced by hydrogenation of carbon monoxide.It is the simplest alcohol which contain methyl group that is linked with hydroxyl group.Methanol is volatile,colorless,flammable liquid.

Ethanol is less toxic than methanol.Methanol is the precursor of acetic acid,methyl tertiary butyl ether.

During formation of commercial methanol,carbon dioxide and water acts as poisons to alkali metal methoxide catalyst in low temperature in methanol synthesis reaction.

More over,high temperature evaporates methanol.
