Vedclass · Answer

(C) An exothermic reaction is a process that releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings.
In such reactions,the enthalpy of the products $(H_p)$ is less than the enthalpy of the reactants $(H_r)$.
Therefore,the change in enthalpy $(\Delta H = H_p - H_r)$ is negative.
Since $H_p < H_r$,it implies that the reactants have more energy than the products.
