A potential energy diagram is shown. What is the total change in enthalpy of this reaction? 25 kJ 30 kJ 35 kJ 55 kJ

Answer : The total change in enthalpy of this reaction is 25 kJ.

Explanation :

Enthalpy of reaction : It is defined as the changes in heat energy takes place when reactants go to products. It is denotes as .

ΔH = Energy of product - Energy of reactant

ΔH is positive when heat is absorbed and the reaction is endothermic.

ΔH is negative when heat is released and the reaction is exothermic.

In the given potential energy diagram, the energy of product at higher level and energy of reactant at lower level. The ΔH for this reaction will be positive.

Given:

Energy of product = 55 kJ

Energy of reactant = 30 kJ

ΔH = Energy of product - Energy of reactant

ΔH = 55 kJ - 30 kJ

ΔH = 25 kJ

Thus, the total change in enthalpy of this reaction is 25 kJ.

answer; i believe that the correct answer is (a) potassium(k)

that's what i got you can count the number of atoms
