When 1 mole of P4O10(s) reacts with H2O(l) to form H3PO4(aq) according to the following equation, 453 kJ of energy are evolved. P4O10(s) 6H2O(l)4H3PO4(aq)

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

When 1 mole of P4O10(s) reacts with H2O(l) to form H3PO4(aq) according to the following equation, 453 kJ of energy are evolved.

P4O10(s) + 6H2O(l)When 1 mole of P4O10(s) reacts4H3PO4(aq)

Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? endothermicexothermic

The reaction is exothermic

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction refers to any reaction in which heat was EVOLVED. The word was stressed to indicate that it holds the key to answering the question correctly.

We were told in the question that heat was evolved, hence the reaction is exothermic in nature.

The balanced thermochemical equation of the reaction is :

P₄O₁₀(s) + 6H₂O(l) → 4H₃PO₄(aq) ΔH = -453 kJ

it would be b. 6co2 + 6h2o --> c6h12o6 + 6o2
