In a chemical reaction, the difference between the potential energy of the products and the potential energy of the reactants is equal to the heat of the reaction<span>. This is, the net energy released or absorbed (change) during a chemical reaction is the sum of the potential energy of the products less the sum of the potential energy of the reactants.</span>
