Exergonic reaction
|
|

None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Reactions with a positive ∆G (∆G > 0), on the other hand, require an input of energy and are called endergonic reactions. In this case, the products, or final state, have more free energy than the reactants, or initial state.
Detailed explanation-2: -G is negative for endergonic reactions.
Detailed explanation-3: -If free energy is negative (-∆G), it means that energy is released and if it is positive, the energy is being absorbed/stored. Endergonic reactions are the type of reaction in which free energy is absorbed. Endergonic reactions indicate that the energy is absorbed by the system.
