A) Give the reaction that occurs when 1 gram of sodium is added to 100 ml of ethanol. b) This solution is then heated with 5 grams of 1-bromobutane. What is the maximum yield of the final product from this reaction?

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
