Question

2. In a particular chemical reaction, the energy of the reactants is 30 kJ and the energy of the products is 5kJ. The maximum energy of the system is 40 kJ.
a. Sketch a potential energy diagram for this reaction. Make sure to label the energy of the reactants, the energy of the products, the activation energy, and the enthalpy change for the reaction.

Answer 1

maximum energy of the system is 40 kJ. is activation energy :)
energy of the reactants is 30 kJ
energy of the products is 5 kJ

Answer 3

this video will explain it to you

Answer 4

How do you sketch it? Like I have noooo idea how to do this assignment! :(
But thank you @ZairaHernandez @Australopithecus

Answer 5

ohh ok

Answer 6

That video shows you a diagram, it is the same as the one you have to draw

Answer 7

It also walks you through it

Answer 8

you might want to denote the energies on the y-axis though

Answer 9

Thank you so much @Australopithecus

Answer 10

Answer 11

c. What is the enthalpy change for this reaction?

Answer 12

d. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? Explain your answer in two ways: first, using the energy values, and second, by referring to the shape of the graph.

Answer 13

@ZairaHernandez can you please help me again? /.\

Answer 14

I have no clue sorry

Answer 15

Okay thanks anyway @ZairaHernandez
