The true statement about the bond energies of the reactants and products in an exothermic reaction is: A. Bond energy in the reactants is greater than bond energy in the products.

A chemical reaction is a chemical process which involves the continuous transformation and rearrangement of either the ionic, atomic or molecular structure of chemical elements, especially through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds, so as to form (produce) a new chemical compound.

In Chemistry, the two (2) main types of chemical reaction are;

  • Endothermic reaction: it is a chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed from the environment .
  • Exothermic reaction: it is a chemical reaction in which light and heat energy is liberated (released) into the environment.

Typically, light and heat energy is liberated (released) in an exothermic chemical reaction when the energy of the products is lesser than the energy of the reactants i.e the reactant's bond energy is greater than the product's bond energy.
