A layer of hot liquid rock
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.

We assume that we have Ka= 4.2x10^-13 (missing in the question)
and when we have this equation:
H2PO4 (-) → H+ + HPO4-
and form the Ka equation we can get [H+]:
Ka= [H+] [HPO4-] / [H2PO4] and we have Ka= 4.2x10^-13 & [H2PO4-] = 0.55m
by substitution:
4.2x10^-13 = (z)(z)/ 0.55
z^2 = 2.31x 10^-13
z= 4.81x10^-7
∴[H+] = 4.81x10^-7
when PH equation is:
PH= -㏒[H+]
= -㏒(4.81x10^-7) = 6.32
