Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a radioactive process involving the splitting of a large unstable nucleus into smaller/lighter nuclei with the release of large amount of energy. The large amount of energy is achieved by bombarding fast moving neutron against the the unstable nucleus of the large substance/elements undergoing fission. The resulting energy (produced from the fission) is used in nuclear reactors to heat water (to produce electricity), which can also cause a turbine to convert its kinetic energy into mechanical energy.

Answer: The reaction is exothermic reaction as the energy of products is less than the energy of reactants.

Explanation: Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is less than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and $\Delta H$ for the reaction comes out to be negative.

Labeling of the parts in the diagram:

A represents the activation energy which is the energy required by reactants to cross the energy barrier to get converted to products.

E represents the potential energy of the reactants.

B represents the activated complex.

D represents the potential energy of the products.

C represents the total enthalpy change of the reaction, which comes out to be negative for exothermic reactions.

$\Delta H=E_P-E_R$

Is each of these statements true? If not, explain why.(m) For most reactions, ΔH°rnx is lowered by a catalyst.

barxatty [35]

A catalyst reduces H°rnx in most reactions. The answer is false

<h3>Do catalysts reduce delta H?</h3>

By reducing the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, a catalyst just modifies the route used to go from reactants to products. However, because it doesn't alter the state of the products or reactants, delta H is unaffected.

A catalyst reduces a reaction's activation energy, enabling a chemical reaction to occur. The number of reactant particles with energy above the activation energy increases as the temperature of a reaction rises.
