The quantity that will always have a negative value is:
**the change in energy in a system during an exothermic reaction.**
In an exothermic reaction, energy is released into the surroundings, resulting in a decrease in the energy of the system, which corresponds to a negative change in energy (\(\Delta E < 0\)).
**the change in energy in a system during an exothermic reaction.**
In an exothermic reaction, energy is released into the surroundings, resulting in a decrease in the energy of the system, which corresponds to a negative change in energy (\(\Delta E < 0\)).
