Identify the statement

below that is true about
chemical reactions.
(1 point)
Exothermic
reactions do
not require
activation
energy in
order to get
started.
Exothermic
reactions tend
to release
heat energy to
the
surrounding
environment.
Endothermic
reactions tend
to increase
the
temperature of
their
surroundings.
Exothermic
reactions have
products with
more energy
compared to

the reactants.

thatsnot an option

I apologize for the confusion. In that case, the true statement about chemical reactions is:

Exothermic reactions tend to release heat energy to the surrounding environment.
