5 0
There is one electron in p orbital of methyl radical (H₃C·). Carbon has four valence electrons, three electrons are bonded to three hydrogen atoms, t<span>he fourth valence electron is unpaired, because hydrogen atom left methyl group with one shared electron with carbon.

Which of the following is NOT true about the exothermic reaction?
Natasha2012 [34]

The statement that is not true about the exothermic reaction is that the potential energy of the product is higher than the potential energy of the reactant. That is option D.

<h3>What is an exothermic reaction?</h3>

An exothermic reaction is the reaction that releases heat to the environment which causes increase in the immediate environment.

The characteristics of exothermic reaction include the following:

  • Activation energy of the forward reaction is smaller than the activation energy of the reverse reaction.

  • Heat is released to the environment during reaction.

Since there is release of heat, the product will have a lower energy than the reactant.

Therefore, the statement that is not true about the exothermic reaction is that the potential energy of the product is higher than the potential energy of the reactant.

Which statements are correct about a group? The elements in each group have similar chemical properties. The elements in each gr
yarga [219]
In Chemistry, when we say Group, this term refers to the column in the periodic table wherein the elements in it share the same valence electron structure, as well as their physical and chemical properties. Therefore, based on the statements above, I can say that the answer would be the first option.
