Question

5 what happens to the energy that is absorbed during an endothermic reaction? a it is stored in the chemical bonds of the products b it is used up like the reactants in a chemical reaction c it is released, causing an increase in temperature d it is used to break chemical bonds of the products

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In an endothermic reaction, energy is absorbed. This energy is not "used up" (energy is conserved, not destroyed like reactants), nor is it released (that would be exothermic). Breaking bonds of reactants requires energy (absorbed), and the energy absorbed is stored in the chemical bonds of the products.

Answer:

A. It is stored in the chemical bonds of the products
