Question 12 An experimental technique called elemental analysis reveals that particular antibiotic is composed of 53.827% carbon, 6.453% hydrogen, 8.968% nitrogen, 10.27% sulfur, and the rest is oxygen. What is the empirical formula of penicillin F

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
