Substance that increases the rate of reaction by decreasing activation energy.

How do catalysts speed up the rate of reaction?

• By decreasing the energy difference between producst and reactants

In exothermic reactions, energy is ​ (a)   .

In endothermic reactions, energy is ​ (b)   .

• released
• absorbed

Answer explanation

Remember the "exo" sounds like "exit"

In exothermic reactions, energy exits (energy is released)

Remember the "endo" sounds like "into"

In endothermic reactions, energy go into (energy is absorbed)

Organize these options into the right categories

Groups:

(a) Exothermic reactions

,

(b) Endothermic reactions

• Energy is a reactant

• ΔE is negative

• A + B --> C + energy

• ΔE is positive

• Energy is a product

• Energy is released

• Products are lower energy than reactants

• Products are higher energy than reactants

• X + Y + energy --> Z

• Energy is absorbed

NGSS.HS-PS3-1

Is this reaction exothermic or endothermic?

• Exothermic, because the products are lower energy than the reactants

• Endothermic, because the products are lower energy than the reactants

• Exothermic, because the products are higher energy than the reactants

• Endothermic, because the products are higher energy than the reactants

Answer explanation

In exothermic reactions energy is released. This means that the products will be lower energy than the reactants.
