Answer:

B

Explanation:

The normal way to express an energy reaction is to put the energy on the left. Then you can make a rule.

  • If the energy on the left is plus then the reactants require energy. The reaction is endothermic -- energy is taken from the environment.
  • If the energy is minus when it is on the left. then the reactants give up energy. The reaction is exothermic and energy is given to the environment.

2CO(g)+O2(g) - energy --> 2CO2(g)

Exothermic
