I’d say A. They are theoretical in the fact that they have not been observed directly, but have been confirmed to exist through experimentation.
Answer:
+VE
Explanation:
If we look at the reaction profile pictured in the question, we can easily identify A as the enthalpy of the reaction. The enthalpy of reaction (ΔHrxn) is usually defined as the difference between the total enthalpy (heat content) of the products of a reaction and the total enthalpy (heat content) of the reactants in that reaction.
Looking at the figure, we can see that the enthalpy of products is greater than the enthalpy of reactants, hence ∆Hrxn is positive as stated in the answer above.
The answer is 3. The releasing of energy means exothermic reaction. So the ΔH should be negative. And the greatest quantity of energy released means that the greatest number. So according to the table I, the answer is 3.
