c+o=co it is exothermic or endothermic reaction or photolysis
Answers
Answer:
exothermic reaction
Explanation:
becoz heat is released
and your equation is not balanced . it is C+O2-> CO2 +∆
Energy plays a key role in chemical processes. According to the modern view of chemical reactions, bondsbetween atoms in the reactants must be broken, and the atoms or pieces of molecules are reassembled into products by forming new bonds. Energy is absorbed to break bonds, and energy is evolved as bonds are made. In some reactions the energy required to break bonds is larger than the energy evolved on making new bonds, and the net result is the absorption of energy. Such a reaction is said to be endothermic if the energy is in the form of heat. The opposite of endothermic is exothermic; in an exothermic reaction, energy as heat is evolved. The more general terms exoergic(energy evolved) and endoergic(energy required) are used when forms of energy other than heat are involved.
