A)
When sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) are combined, a small amount of table salt is formed and abright yellow light and a lot of heat are given off. Does it take more energy to break the bonds of thereactants, or is more energy released when forming the bonds of the products? How do you know?
(1 point)
It takes more energy to break the bonds of the reactants because yellow light is given off, which indicates
energy was absorbed in the beginning.
More energy is released when forming the bonds of the products because a lot of heat is given off, which
indicates energy was released.
More energy is released when forming the bonds of the products because yellow light is given off, which
indicates energy was released.
It takes more energy to break the bonds of the reactants because a lot of heat is given off, which indicates

(1 point)
Two H–H bonds are broken, one O=O bond is broken, and two H–O bonds are formed.
Two H–H bonds are broken, one O=O bond is broken, and four H–O bonds are formed.
Two H–H bonds are broken, one O–O bond is broken, and four H–O bonds are formed.
One H–H bond is broken, one O–O bond is broken, and two H–O bonds are formed.

1) Molecules must collide at a high enough energy to break bonds.

2) Activation energy = the minimum amount of energy required to break bonds and start a chemical reaction.

3) Adding heat.

4) More energy is released when forming the bonds of the products because a lot of heat is given off, indicating an exothermic reaction.

5) Two H–H bonds are broken, one O=O bond is broken, and four H–O bonds are formed.
