Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: H2 → H + H What occurs during this reaction? 1. Energy is absorbed as bonds
2 answers:
Answer : The correct option is, (2) Energy is absorbed as bonds are broken.
Explanation :
As we know that the bonds are formed and breaks during the chemical reaction. Some energy is released or absorbed when the bonds are formed and breaks during the chemical reaction.
During the bond breaking, some energy is required to break the bonds.
During the bond formation, some energy is released to the formation of the bonds.
In the given reaction, the bond between the hydrogen-hydrogen in are breaking into two hydrogen. That means during the bond breaking, some energy is required or absorbed to break the bonds.
Hence, the correct option is, (2) Energy is absorbed as bonds are broken.

Answer:
False
Explanation:
Heres what its made of:
The core is made of hot, dense plasma (ions and electrons), at a pressure estimated at 265 billion bar (3.84 trillion psi or 26.5 petapascals (PPa)) at the center. Due to fusion, the composition of the solar plasma drops from 68–70% hydrogen by mass at the outer core, to 34% hydrogen at the core/Sun center.
