The potential energy diagram for a reaction starts at 180 kj and ends at 300 kj. what type of reaction does the diagram best represent?
exothermic reaction
endothermic reaction
reaction between two solids
reaction between two liquids

Endothermic reaction

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be negative.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and for the reaction comes out to be positive.

As the energy of reactants is 180 kJ and that of products is 300 kJ, the energy of products is greater than that of reactants, which means  the energy has been absorbed and reaction is endothermic.

hurricanes form in warm water

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!
