In exothermic reactions forward reactions need _.
Correct answer: C. Less Energy
- A. More Energy
- B. No energy
- C. Less Energy
- D. A catalyst
Explanation
Exothermic reactions are bond-making reactions in which heat energy is released. So the activation energy required for forward reaction in an exothermic reaction is always smaller than backward reaction as heat energy is released. So products will have less energy than reactants. Option C is correct.
