The statement that is also true for an exothermic reaction would be that the products have a lower potential energy than the reactants.

<u>Answer: </u>The correct statement is the products have a lower potential energy than the reactants.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which the enthalpy change of a reaction is negative.

Enthalpy of a reaction is determined by the equation:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum H_{products}-\sum H_{reactants}

As, the enthalpy change of the reaction is negative, which means that the potential energy of the products is less than the potential energy of the reactants.

Hence, the correct statement is the products have a lower potential energy than the reactants.

Given the reaction: S + O2 ---&gt; SO2
saul85 [17]

Answer: 67.1 moles of SO2

Explanation:

Since the equation is already balanced, you would just need to cancel out the O2 and multiple the 67.1 mol by the 1 mol of SO2 to get your answer.
