A student touches a freshly baked cake that was taken out of the oven. Which best explains why the cake feels hot?

A
Molecules in the skin are moving faster than molecules in the cake.
B
Molecules in the cake are moving faster than molecules in the skin.
C
The kinetic energy of molecules in the cake is more than the energy in the baking tray.

Which answer defines exothermic reaction?

A
a process in which energy is released as heat
B
a process in which energy is absorbed as heat
C
a process in which energy is stored and released
D
a process in which energy is not present in a system
5

How does the potential-energy diagram for a reaction indicate whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic?

A
An endothermic reaction has reactants that are lower in energy than products because energy is absorbed to form the products.
B
An endothermic reaction has reactants that are higher in energy than products because energy is released to form the products.
C
An exothermic reaction has reactants that are lower in energy than products because energy is released to form the products.
D
An exothermic reaction has reactants that are higher in energy than products because energy is absorbed to form the products.

Two samples of carbon come into contact. A heat transfer will occur between sample A and sample B. What must be true for heat to transfer from sample A to sample B?

A
The average kinetic energy of A is greater than that of B.
B
The average kinetic energy of B is greater than that of A.
C
The average kinetic energy of both samples is equal.
D
The average kinetic energy does not determine the direction of heat transfer.
7

The temperature of a sample of liquid water changes from 50°C to 30°C. Which statement best explains the change that must happen at the molecular level?

A
The molecules move more quickly and their average kinetic energy increases.
B
The molecules move more slowly and their average kinetic energy decreases.
C
The molecules move more quickly and their average kinetic energy decreases.
D
The molecules move more slowly and their average kinetic energy increases.
8

What is thermal energy?

A
the average overall volume of a system
B
the total number of molecules in a system
C
the kinetic energy of particles in a system
D
the measure of temperature in a system
9

Which statement about exothermic reactions is accurate?

A
As reactants form products, the potential energy decreases.
B
As reactants form products, the potential energy increases.
C
Thermal energy is transferred from the product to the reacting substances.
D
Thermal energy is transferred from the surroundings to the reacting substances.
