Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following best characterizes the reaction A + B + energy
A
exergonic
B
endergonic
C
re-dox
D
hydrolysis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endergonic reactions may also be called an unfavorable reaction or nonspontaneous reaction. The reaction requires more energy than you get from it. Endergonic reactions absorb energy from their surroundings. The chemical bonds that are formed from the reaction are weaker than the chemical bonds that were broken.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the exergonic reaction, the reactants are at a higher free energy level than the products (reaction goes energetically downhill). In the endergonic reaction reaction, the reactants are at a lower free energy level than the products (reaction goes energetically uphill).
