B) some planets revolve backwards
Polar bears float on ice floes to hunt for food.
Answer:
The reaction is exothermic (option 4)
Explanation:
P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal
In chemical reactions heat can be absorbed or released:
⇒in the first case, when heat is absorbed, this is called an endothermic reaction. The products have more energy than the reactants. The reaction requires or absorbs energy from it's surroundings. That means that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be absorbed by the reactants.
⇒ when heat is released, this is called an exothermic reaction. The reactants have more energy than the products. The reaction gives or releases energy to it's surroundings. That means that in this reaction energy , in the form of heat, will be released by the reactants.
in the case of P4 + 5O2 → P4O10 + 712 kcal
We notice that on the right side, which is the product side, there is a positive amount of energy. This means that the energy is released by the the reactants, in this reaction. <u>The reaction is exothermic.</u>

Its been awhile since I've dabbled in chemistry, but i do know that A isnt the answer because the question says solution, not mixture. This looks somewhat like a trick question, it says individual components, so the answer would be C. This is because the individual components do react to form a compound. B and D would be true if it didnt say individual components, so the question is basically focusing on only one ingredient, not the whole solution. Answer: C
