If you were looking for a non-metal on the periodic table the best place to look would be a) on the top b) on the bottom c) on the left side d) on the right side

If you were looking for a non-metal on the periodic table, the best place to look would be on the right side.

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
