Ok, after doing an immense amount of research I came up with the most logical answer.
A. Is indicated by a negative enthrall sign.
Reasoning: an endothermic reaction is ice melting and the energy being more than its surroundings. Not specified to ice but as an example, ice is endothermic. That puts d and b out of the running leaving you left with a and c.
When I searched up enthalpy, it said “When a substance changes at constant pressure, enthalpy tells how much heat and work was added or removed from the substance.” Which is similar to c, right? Yeah, meaning both a and c are similar in that aspect.
The reason I decided to go with a is because heat is NOT released into the surrounding, exothermic reactions release energy and heat into the surrounding.
Answer:
An exothermic process releases heat, causing the temperature of the immediate surroundings to rise. An endothermic process absorbs heat and cools the surroundings.
It is a compound because a compound is two or more different elements chemically combined.
Substitution Reactions are those reactions in which one nucleophile replaces another nucleophile present on a substrate. These reactions can take place via two different mechanism i.e SN¹ or SN². In SN¹ substitution reactions the leaving group leaves first forming a carbocation and nucleophile attacks carbocation in the second step. While in SN² reactions the addition of Nucleophile and leaving of leaving group take place simultaneously.
Example:
OH⁻ + CH₃-Br → CH₃-OH + Br⁻
In above reaction,
OH⁻ = Incoming Nucleophile
CH₃-Br = Substrate
CH₃-OH = Product
Br⁻ = Leaving group
Organic reactions are typically slower than ionic reactions because in organic compounds the covalent bonds are first broken, this breaking of bonds is a slower step, while, in ionic compounds no bond breakage is required as it consists of ions, so only bond formation takes place which is a quicker and fast step.
