Which graph represents an exothermic reaction?

A
Image with description A graph has Reaction progression on the horizontal axis and energy on the vertical axis. A line segment labeled A plus B starts halfway up the vertical axis and runs parallel to the horizontal axis for a short distance. The line then peaks and returns to the same level as A plus B and continues parallel to the horizontal axis; this segment is labeled C.
B
Image with description A graph has Reaction progression on the horizontal axis and energy on the vertical axis. A line segment labeled A plus B starts low on the vertical axis and runs parallel to the horizontal axis for a short distance. The line then rises sharply and levels off; this level section is labeled C. A double-headed arrow extends from the level of A plus B to that of C.
C
Image with description A graph has Reaction progression on the horizontal axis and energy on the vertical axis. A line segment labeled A plus B starts low and runs parallel to the horizontal axis. The line then curves up sharply, peaks, and falls a short distance to run parallel to the horizontal axis; the final segment is labeled C. A double-headed arrow extends from A plus B to C.
D
Image with description A graph has Reaction progression on the horizontal axis and energy on the vertical axis. A line starts about halfway up the vertical axis and travels a short distance parallel to the horizontal axis; this segment is A plus B. The line then curves up sharply, peaks, and falls sharply to run parallel to and near the horizontal axis; the final segment is C. A double-headed arrow extends from A plus B to C.

How is enthalpy used to predict whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic?

A
When the enthalpy change of the reaction is positive, the reaction is exothermic.
B
When the enthalpy change of the reaction is positive, the reaction is endothermic.
C
When the enthalpy of the products is higher than the enthalpy of the reactants, the reaction is exothermic.
D
When the enthalpy of the reactants is higher than the enthalpy of the products, the reaction is endothermic.

Which statement is true if the Δ⁢H_rxn of a reaction is positive?

A
There is more reactant than product.
B
There is more product than reactant.
C
The reaction is exothermic.
D
The reaction is endothermic.
4

Which statement is true for most chemical reactions?

A
The internal energy of the system increases during a reaction.
B
An energy change occurs during the breaking and forming of bonds.
C
Energy is released during the formation of reactants.
D
The enthalpy of the products is higher than the enthalpy of the reactants.
5

The Δ⁢H_rxn of formation of carbon dioxide is negative. Which statement is true?

A
The amount of carbon dioxide is less than the amount of reactants.
B
The reaction is endothermic.
C
The reaction is exothermic.
D
The amount of carbon dioxide is more than the amount of reactants.
