How do compounds differ from their component elements? a. compounds have different numbers of neutrons than their component elements. b. compounds have different charges than their component elements. c. compounds have different properties than their component elements. d. compounds have different masses than the sum of masses of their component elements.

The correct answer is C. Compounds have different properties than their component elements. When compounds are formed, they undergo change resulting to changes in the properties they exhibit. It will have its new set of properties different from the elements.

The answer is 65.3312

Answer:

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

explanation:

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
