Questions and Answers

What is the definition of the heat of reaction, denoted as ΔH?

  • The overall energy change during a chemical reaction. (correct)
  • The energy required to break bonds in the reactants.
  • The energy released when new bonds are formed in the products.
  • The heat absorbed during a chemical reaction.
