Energy is transmitted to the surrounding in an exothermic reaction and this can be understood with the energy diagram of exothermic reaction attached with the answer.
<h3>What is an Exothermic Reaction ?</h3>
When a chemical reaction happens, energy is transferred to or from the surroundings.
When energy is transferred to the surroundings, this is called an exothermic reaction, and the temperature of the surroundings increases.
ΔH value negative –> energy released –> exothermic reaction
This happens because the reactants are at the higher energy state as compared to the products and therefore heat is liberated in the atmosphere to match the difference and therefore heat content in the surroundings increases.
The energy diagram for the exothermic reaction is attached with this answer.

The reason the molecular formula for a disaccharide is not simply double that of a monosaccharide is because when the covalent bond is formed between the carbons of each sugar, an H of one is removed along with an OH from the other. This resulting loss of an H + OH forms H2O (water), therefore the reaction combining the two sugars covalently is called a "dehydration synthesis."
For example, in combining 2 glucose (C6H12O6) molecules, instead of it being 2 × C6H12O6 = C12H24O12, the dehydration synthesis removes 1 H2O to make room for the C-C covalent bond between the two sugars' carbons. Therefore it is 2 H's and 1 O less than that doubling, or: C12H22O11
Answer:
Catalysis
Explanation:
Pepsin is able to break peptide bonds, turning large protein molecules into small peptide chains.
When pepsin acts to break down pepsinogen (inactive form of pepsin), it is accelerating pepsinogen → pepsin reactions, acting as a catalyst, reducing activation energy and favoring proteolytic reactions at a higher rate.
This process of accelerating reactions is characteristic of enzymes and is known as catalysis.
No, they are both different
If mirrors did not reflect light, then we would be able to see through it.
