Question 10

Which graph represents an exothermic reaction?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

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.
