D) warm and wet.
Water can be a catalyst, and heat speeds up reactions.
The true statement is (A) energy is absorbed during the reaction
For the products to have more energy, they must absorb it from the surrounding.
The net amount of energy produced can be obtained from a table of enthalpy change of formation, available online.
The enthalpy change of formation indicate how much energy the 1 mole of the product (H2O) has relative to the elemental reactants (H2 and O2). In other words, the "lost" energy equals the heat/energy released.
For water (H2O), this value is -285.8 if the final product is a liquid under standard conditions, and -241.82 if the product is in gas form which contains some energy that could be further released. This means that if the final product (H2O) is in liquid form, energy released is 285.8 kJ/mol.
Since water is in liquid form under standard conditions, the first value (285.8 kJ/mol) is generally appropriate.
D-sublevel can occupy 10 electrons whereas s-sublevel can occupy 2 electrons...
Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability
