Na because its a metal. Metals are the best conductors. S and Ne are nonmetals. and Ge is a metalloid. (Metalloids are semi conductors)
Release less energy than it uses
The answer is TRUE.
If the Energy is on the left, then the problem is true. If it is on the right then it would be negative, false, and considered as exothermic.
Endothermic reaction = the products are higher in energy than the reactants.
Exothermic reaction = a chemical reaction that releases energy by light or heat.
Neither of them are used in magnets they don’t attract metal
