Here are the answers to your questions based on the principles of thermodynamics:
Question 1: A) Which result occurs during an exothermic reaction?
- Response: Light or heat are released into the environment.
Question 2: A) Which event is an example of an endothermic reaction?
- Response: photosynthesis
Question 3: A) How is total reaction energy calculated?
- Response: reactant bond energy – product bond energy
Question 4: A) When producing hydrogen iodide, the energy of the reactants is 581 kJ/mol, and the energy of the products is 590 kJ/mol. What is the total energy of the reaction? Is this an endothermic or exothermic reaction?
- Response: 9 kJ/mol, endothermic (since energy of products is greater than that of the reactants)
Question 5: A) Hydrogen bromide breaks down into diatomic hydrogen and bromine. The energy of the reactant is 732 kJ/mol, and the energy of the products is 630 kJ/mol. What is the total energy of the reaction? Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?
- Response: -102 kJ/mol, exothermic (since energy of products is less than that of the reactants)
