Question

Energy produced in a chemical reaction is a specific type of :

• A. kinetic energy
• B. elastic energy
• C. potential energy
• D. entropy
• E. thermal energy

Answer 1

The correct option is E thermal energy

Energy either given to the chemical reaction or released from the reaction is in the form of heat and so the reactions are categorized as endothermic and exothermic.

Thus energy produced in a chemical reaction is a type of thermal energy.
