Which of the following is true of a reaction with a negative enthalpy? O A. The enthalpy of the reactants is greater than that of the products.
B. The reaction has a negative activation energy.
C. The enthalpies of the products and reactants are both negative.
D. The enthalpy of the reactants is less than that of the products.

The statement enthalpy of the reactants is greater than that of the products is true of a reaction with a negative enthalpy.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction where energy is being released is called an exothermic reaction.

In an exothermic reaction, the value of enthalpy of reaction is negative in nature.

Also, heat is being released which means the reactants has more energy than the products due to which the value of enthalpy is negative.  

Thus, we can conclude that the statement enthalpy of the reactants is greater than that of the products is true of a reaction with a negative enthalpy.

answers: to make sure that all of the broken pieces of tablet were added to the water, to allow for fair comparison of all three trials, with different particle sizes to avoid experimental error

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
