Which statement about the change in bond energy of this reaction is correct?
Responses
The reaction is endothermic because the total bond energy of the reactants is greater than the total bond energy of the products.
The reaction is exothermic because the total bond energy of the reactants is less than the total bond energy of the products.
The reaction is exothermic because the energy of each bond in the reactants is greater than the energy of a bond in the products.
