Energy changes in reversible reactions

Opposing (forward vs backward)

Backward reaction if forward is exothermic

Endothermic

Backward reaction if forward is endothermic

Exothermic

Definition: exothermic reaction

Transfers energy to surroundings

Definition: endothermic reaction

Absorbs energy from surroundings

Bond energy reason for exothermic reaction

More energy released forming bonds than absorbed breaking them

Bond energy reason for endothermic reaction

More energy needed to break bonds than released forming them

H2H_2 + I2I_2 → HIHI reaction type

Exothermic

HIHI → H2H_2 + I2I_2 reaction type

Endothermic

Energy change of reverse reaction vs forward

Always opposite
