option C. The potential energy of the products is greater than the potential energy of the reactants.

Explanation:

1) The potential energy diagram shows the evolution of the potential chemical energy of a process or reaction, measured as energy of the chemical bonds, including the reactants, the intermediates, the activated complex, and the products.

The vertical axis is the potential energy (energy of the chemical bonds) of the substances, and the horizontal axis is time.

2) An endothermic reaction is that that absorbs energy from the surroundings to lead the substances to a higher chemical potential energy. The surroundings will get cooler and the products will content more potential energy than the reactants.

3) At the beginning, the potential energy is that of the reactants; as the reaction progress, the potential energy increase, since the particles (molecules, atoms or ions) have to reach the peak, which is the point where the activated complex has been formed. From that point, the potential energy starts to decrease until the final products are formed.

3) The energy of the final state (the products) will be higher than the energy of the initial state, if the reaction absorbed heat from the surroundings (which is what an endothermic reaction is). If the final energy is less than the initial one, the products have released energy and that is an exothermic reaction.

4) The curve (diagram) shows that, and the choice C indicates correctly the change in the energy for an endothermic reaction: The potential energy of the products is greater than the potential energy of the reactants.

During metamorphic processes, increased pressure and temperature can affect the of minerals in rock. rocks subjected to very high pressure are typically than others because mineral grains are squeezed together, and the atoms are more closely packed. during metamorphic processes, water facilitates the transfer of ions between and within minerals, which can the rate at which metamorphic reactions take place. the growth of new minerals within a rock during metamorphism has been estimated to be about per million years. metamorphism is commonly associated with convergent plate boundaries, where two plates move toward each other. during contact metamorphism, a large intrusion will contain thermal energy and will cool much more slowly than a small one. metamorphosed sandstone is known as the metamorphic rock made from metamorphosed shale, was once used to make blackboards for classrooms.

Sulfur dioxide and oxygen react to form sulfur trioxide during one of the key steps in sulfuric acid synthesis. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 25.0l tank with 4.5 mol of sulfur dioxide gas and 4.5 mol of oxygen gas at 30.°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the amount of sulfur trioxide gas to be 1.4 mol. calculate the concentration equilibrium constant for the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
