Question

which term correctly describes a reaction in which the energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants? oxidation - reduction endothermic exothermic combustion double replacement

Explanation:

• Oxidation - reduction reactions involve electron transfer.
• Endothermic reactions absorb heat, so products have higher energy than reactants.
• Exothermic reactions release heat (products have lower energy).
• Combustion is a type of exothermic reaction (e.g., burning, releases heat).
• Double - replacement reactions are about ion exchange (not about energy gain/loss in this context).

Answer:

endothermic
