In exothermic reactions forward reactions need?

Correct answer: C. Less Energy

  • A. More Energy
  • B. No energy
  • C. Less Energy
  • D. Catalyst

Explanation

Processes that release energy. energy is released because the total energy of the products is less than the total energy of the reactants. In an exothermic reaction the system will respond to favor the forward reaction. This is because the exothermic forward reaction has a net releasing of heat effect, which will raise the temperature and counteract the decrease in temperature that initially disturbed it.

About Reaction Kinetics

Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
