Ascientist is studying a chemical reaction. she predicts that after the reaction the product will have less chemical potential energy than the reactants had originally. the scientist observes the reaction, and notes that no light or sound is produced. however, other observations support the scientist's prediction that the total chemical potential energy has decreased. describe one observation that would support her prediction.

The reaction becomes warmer or hotter as it proceeds. This means that touching the container in which the reaction is taking place would feel hotter. This means the reaction dissipates heat energy and has a negative enthalpy. The reaction is written with  a negative delta- H in the products side for the reaction to be balanced.

answer: option (4) is the correct answer.

explanation:

areas which are at low altitudes and near the equator tend to receive direct sunlight from the sun. hence, heat energy or radiations from the sun make these areas warmer and they have warmest water.

whereas areas which are at high altitudes and away from the equator do no receive direct sunlight. hence, no direct contact from the sun makes these regions colder and thus, they have colder water.

thus, we can conclude that the statement areas at low latitudes near the equator have the warmest water because they receive the most direct sunlight best explains the relationship between an area's geography and the temperature of its surface water.

your answers are a,b,,e and f
