A

Energy of the reactants (starting energy)

100
If a reaction gives off energy it is considered what?
Exothermic
100

the potential energy stored in reactant bonds

starting energy

200

B?

Activation energy

200
If the ΔH is positive, what is the reaction?
Endothermic
200

total change in energy from reactants to products

ΔH

300

C?

activation energy of the reverse

300
When the net energy released is negative
Exothermic
300

Energy stored in the bonds of the products

ending energy

400

400


What is A?

Endothermic 

400

The amount of energy it takes for the reaction to begin

activation energy

500

E

Energy of the products

500
In an Endothermic reaction where does the energy for the reaction come from.
Its surroundings Example a cold pack is an endothermic reaction that pulls the energy from the surrounding environment into the cold pack. Because energy must be added to the system(The cold pack) the reaction is endothermic.
500

the energy of the intermediate structures between the reactants and products
