Question

Analyze the reaction to determine whether the

Answer 1

Answer:

The reaction is exothermic.   A net release of energy from the reacting

substances into the surroundings makes

this an exothermic reaction.   The equation shows that 891 kJ of energy

are released as a product.   The graph shows that the reactants have

greater potential energy than the products.

This means the difference in energy is

released to the surroundings.

Explanation:

I got it correct on Edg. :-)

Answer 2

Answer: Exothermic

Explanation: Looking at the graph, you see that the reaction started with more energy than it ended with, meaning it gave out its energy over the course of the reaction. This is also confirmed by the reaction equation, which shows the energy (891 kJ) on the right side of the equation.
