a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The classification of the reaction in which the reactants involved have lower energy than the products formed as being exergonic or endergonic in nature.

Concept Introduction:

Thermodynamics is the branch of chemistry which studies the difference of heat and energies of product and reactant in the chemical reaction. Therefore, the sign of free energy change and heat change for a given chemical reaction is predicted by using the concept of thermodynamics.
