What type of bond is energy stored in
chemical
(True or false) Different chemical bonds hold different amounts of energy
True
If the reactant molecules in a reaction have more energy in their chemical bonds than the product molecules, will energy be absorbed or released overall?
Released
What is an exothermic reaction?
A reaction that releases thermal energy to the surroundings
If an exothermic reaction occurs in a closed container, what would happen to the temperature inside the container?
The temperature would increase
What is an endothermic energy?
A reaction that takes in thermal energy from the surroundings
If an endothermic reaction occurs in a closed container, what would happen to the temperature inside the container?
Temperature would decrease
