The student repeats the experiment but fills the cup with 60 mL of water instead of 30 mL. • Predict what will happen in the experiment.
• Explain why the predicted result will likely occur.

Be sure to discuss the motion of molecules and the transfer of energy.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
