Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Energy is absorbed in which chemical reaction?
A
Endothermic
B
Exothermic
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chemical reactions that absorb (or use) energy overall are called endothermic. In endothermic reactions, more energy is absorbed when the bonds in the reactants are broken than is released when new bonds are formed in the products.

Detailed explanation-2: -A chemical reaction in which heat is released is called an exothermic reaction. A chemical reaction in which heat is absorbed is called an endothermic reaction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chemical reactions that release energy are called exothermic. In exothermic reactions, more energy is released when the bonds are formed in the products than is used to break the bonds in the reactants. Chemical reactions that absorb (or use) energy are called endothermic.

Detailed explanation-4: -Absorption is an endothermic process while adsorption is an exothermic phenomenon.

Detailed explanation-5: -Reaction in which energy is absorbed is known as endothermic reaction.
