Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements is true for an endothermic reaction?
  • Step 1: Understand what an endothermic reaction is. It is a type of chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings.
  • Step 2: Know that during an endothermic reaction, the energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants.
  • Step 3: Learn about enthalpy change (ΔH). It measures the heat content of a system.
  • Step 4: In an endothermic reaction, since heat is absorbed, the enthalpy change (ΔH) is positive.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the true statement for an endothermic reaction is that ΔH is positive.
