Solution

The correct option is B Statement I is false and statement II is true
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy by light or heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction. Expressed in a chemical equation:
reactants → products + energy.
An exothermic reaction has a negative H so statement 1 is false.
