NEET levelSingle correct optionDifficulty 1 of 3g3176

In the energy profile of an exothermic reaction, the products are

  1. Alower in energy than the reactants, with positive
  2. Bhigher in energy than the reactants, with negative
  3. Cat the same energy as the reactants
  4. Dlower in energy than the reactants, with negative

Answer: D

An exothermic reaction releases heat, so the products are lower in energy than the reactants and .
