Question

Please hurry I'm in a test... 50 pts :)) HIGH SCHOOL CHEMISTRY

Reactant P contains 50 J of energy, and reactant Q contains 35.3 J of energy. The reactants combine to form product PQ, which contains 104 J of energy. What is the energy transformation?

Energy is absorbed because the product has more energy than the reactants have.
Energy is absorbed because the product has less energy than the reactants have.
Energy is lost because the product has more energy than the reactants have.
Energy is lost because the product has less energy than the reactants have.

Answer 1

A. Energy is absorbed because the product has more energy than the reactants have.

Here the energy of both reactants is combined together and not released.
