    In the exothermic reaction the enthalpy of reaction is always:

    A)  zero                     

    B)         positive              

    C)         negative            

    D)         none of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Enthalpy of reaction \[(\Delta H)\] is defined as heat  exchanged during any chemical reaction \[\Delta H={{H}_{P}}-{{H}_{R}}\] For exothermic reactions \[{{H}_{P}}<{{H}_{R}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\Delta H\]  is \[-ve\].
