8. Circle the letter of each sentence that is correct for the graph below. Reaction Energy-Exothermic Chemical Energy - Reactants Energy released by reaction Products Reaction Progress a. The energy required to break the bonds in the reactants is greater than the energy released as the products form. b. The energy released as the products form is greater than the energy required to break the bonds in the reactants c. The chemical energy of the reactants is greater than the chemical energy of the products. d. The chemical energy of the products is greater than the chemical energy of the reactants.PART 2 - Chemical reactions: exothermic and endothermic Based on the picture above, classify the following reaction as endothermic or exothermic. Justify your answer. Exothermic Reaction Endothermic Reaction Reactants Energy released Products Chemical energy Chemical energy Energy absorbed Products Reactants Reaction Reaction In an exothermic reaction, chemical In an endothermic reaction, energy is energy is released, often as heat. absorbed by the reactants and stored in the products as chemical energy
