Consider the reaction pathway graph below.Which statement accurately describes this graph?

Question illustration
A
It represents an endothermic reaction because the product has more energy than the reactants.
B
It represents an exothermic reaction because the product has more energy than the reactants.
C
It represents an endothermic reaction because the reactants have more energy than the product.
D
It represents an exothermic reaction because the reactants have more energy than the product.

Consider the reaction pathway graph below.Which inference is supported by evidence in the graph?

Question illustration
A
A and C show that the reaction enthalpy is less than the activation energy.
B
G and E show that this reaction is an endothermic process with heat release.
C
B and F show that the activated complex has less energy than the reactants.
D
E and D show that the energy of the products is less than that of the reactants.
4

What happens if the amount of energy that is absorbed by the reactants is less than the activation energy?

A
The reaction does not occur.
B
The reaction occurs very quickly.
C
The reaction occurs very slowly.
D
The reaction occurs spontaneously.
5

B
The energy of the activated complex (B) is greater than that of the reactants (A).
C
The energy of the products (A) is greater than that of the reactants (C).

7

Which statement best describes the reaction pathway graph for endothermic reactions?

A
mainly downhill
B
always linear
C
always parabolic
D
mainly uphill
8

Which statement best describes how to read a reaction pathway graph for an endothermic reaction?

A
Reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a larger amount of energy as products form.
B
Reactants release a minimum amount of energy and then absorb a larger amount of energy as products form.
C
Reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a smaller amount of energy as products form.
D
Reactants release a minimum amount of energy and then absorb a smaller amount of energy as products form.
10

Consider the reaction pathway graph below. Which inference is supported by evidence in the graph?

Question illustration
A
The energy required to make the activated complex is greater than A + C.
B
This is an exothermic reaction where the total release of energy equals A + C.
C
The products need more energy to form than the reactants as shown by F.
D
This is an endothermic reaction because most of the energy is released at A.
