The heat exchange in chemical reactions is due to a change in:

A. kinetic energy
B. enthalpy
C. temperature
D. physical properties

B

Explanation:

This would be due to enthalpy. This is because that this where heat exchange happens in chemical reactions.

So, a positive enthalpy means that the reaction is endothermic (heat entering) and if enthalpy is negative this will be a exothermic (heat released)

Another example would be the use of atoms. This example if temperature is the factor, this means that at low temp there is less kinetic energy so low temperature. However, an increase in energy means that there is more kinetic energy in the atoms which means that more collisions occurring.

Hope this helps

Have a nice day :)

the electron configuration that you gave me has 16 electrons ergo it has 16 protons ergo it is the element sulfur.
