In an exothermic reaction, the energy of the reacting substances as compared to that of products is____________________?
Correct answer: A. More
- A. More
- B. Less
- C. Same
- D. Either A. or B., depends on order of reaction
Explanation
An exothermic reaction releases energy, so the products lie at a lower energy level than the reacting substances. The energy difference appears as heat released to the surroundings.
