A student made a sketch of a potential energy diagram to represent an endothermic reaction. Explain, using complete sentences, why the diagram made by the student is correct or incorrect. Be sure to also explain what the values of X and Y represent. (10 points)

Incorrect

Explanation:

X is the reactants

Y is the products

In an endothermic reaction where energy is absorbed, the enthalpy the products (Y) is always higher than the enthalpy of the reactants (X).

Enthalpy change (∆H) = products (Y) - Reactants (X)

For an endothermic reaction, the ∆H value should be positive.

Enthalpy change

The diagram sketched by the students shows the opposite. The diagram shows that the enthalpy of the products (Y) is lower than the enthalpy of the reactants (X). This will give a negative value of ∆H.

It represents an exothermic reaction rather than endothermic.

Therefore, the student is incorrect.

what is the general relationship between a galaxy's distance from earth and its speed?

the answer is:

the farther away a galaxy is from us, the faster it is moving away from us.

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.
