Which statement best describes how to read a reaction pathway graph for an endothermic reaction? reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a larger amount of energy as products form. reactants release a minimum amount of energy and then absorb a larger amount of energy as products form. reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a smaller amount of energy as products form. reactants release a minimum amount of energy and then absorb a smaller amount of energy as products form.

Answer : The correct option is, Reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a smaller amount of energy as products form.

Explanation :

Activation energy : It is defined as the minimum amount of energy is required to reach the transition state where intermediates are exists. In another words, we can define activation energy as the minimum amount of energy is required to initiate the reaction.

In case of endothermic reaction, the potential energy of reactant is lower as compared to product.

For endothermic reaction, the reactants absorb a minimum amount of energy and then release a smaller amount of energy as products form.

The endothermic reaction graph is shown below.
