Responses

Products have higher chemical potential energy than reactants.
Products have higher chemical potential energy than reactants.

Reactants have higher chemical potential energy than products.
Reactants have higher chemical potential energy than products.

Products and reactants have the same chemical potential energy.
Products and reactants have the same chemical potential energy.

Product and reactant chemical potential energy varies in different environments.
Product and reactant chemical potential energy varies in different environments.

Answer 1

Products have higher chemical potential energy than reactants.

Explanation: Endothermic reactions absorb energy from the surroundings, so the products end up with more stored (chemical potential) energy than the reactants.
