(2) the number of reactant particles and the number of product particles
(3) the rate of the forward reaction and the rate of the reverse reaction
(4) the mass of the reactants and the mass of the products
(2) Energy is absorbed as a bond is broken.
(3) Energy is released as a bond is formed.
(4) Energy is released as a bond is broken.
Answer:
The correct answer is option 3.
Explanation:
Whenever there is a formation of bond between 2 atoms energy is released. This energy release is due to stability gained by the atoms after the formation of a bond that is why extra energy is released as a heat into surroundings. Exact process is occurring when 2 bromine atoms form bond to give molecule of bromine.
Whenever there is a dissociation of bond between 2 atoms energy is given. The energy provided externally so as to break the stable bond present between the atoms.
