Table 13.1 Heat is released from the chemicals into its surroundings during
an exothermic reactionc
The energy level diagram is a graph that shows the energy content of the
reactants and products of the reaction.Heat energy is absorbed when chemical
bonds of a compound are broken.

On the other hand,heat energy is released when the chemical bonds are
reformed.The exothermic and endothermic reaction are used in the making of
hot and cold packs.Heat of reaction is defined as the heat change that occurs
when 1 mol of substance reacts or when 1 mol of product is formed.
A negatively marked heat of reaction, cshows an exothermic reaction.A
positively marked heat of reaction shows an endothermic reaction,Heat
change is the quantity of heat that is released or absorbed in a reaction. c
