Answer:

a. The beaker absorbed energy that was released by the chemical reaction.  

Explanation:

Gustaf was watching an exothermic reaction, so the beaker got hot.

Exothermic reaction is one in which there is release of energy. In this process, energy production persists only through continuous supply of energy.

Gustaf was watching an exothermic reaction between two substances in a glass beaker. This reaction occurs with the release of energy because it is an exothermic reaction. In this way, the glass absorbed energy that was released by the chemical reaction.

The correct answer is option A.

The beaker absorbed energy that was released by the chemical reaction.

In an exothermic reaction heat energy is released by a chemical reaction. The reactants are converted into products with the release of energy.

The heat energy released by the chemical reaction was absorbed  by the beaker. Hence the beaker feels warm to the touch.

How many phases are in a homogeneous mixture??
Mars2501 [29]
Technically there is only one phase unless you account for a solution where you have a pure liquid with something dissolved in it. Unless you count aqueous as a phase which is just dissolved. Since you are in high school the answer you are looking for is one.  <span />
