They differ in enthalpy change. In the first, gaseous water is formed, and in the second, liquid water is formed; the difference between their enthalpy changes reflects the difference in energy content between a gas and a liquid. See Chapter 9 for more discussion of this point.
The enthalpy change given for a reaction also depends on the coefficients used in the equation for the reaction. Thus, if the equation for the formation of water is written. This last problem can be resolved by doing as we do in several equations where we report the enthalpy change per mole of one component of the reaction, thus removing any ambiguity in interpretation. Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions A reaction that absorbs energy is an endothermic reaction; its enthalpy change H is positive.
The enthalpy of the products of the reaction is greater than that of the reactants. Energy is absorbed from the surroundings. The following reactions are endothermic. The formation of hydrogen iodide: The decomposition of water: A reaction that releases energy is an exothermic reaction; its enthalpy change is negative.
The enthalpy of the products is less than that of the reactants. Energy is released to the surroundings. The following reactions are exothermic. The combustion of methane: The formation of water: Notice that the decomposition of water equation b is endothermic and requires the input of The reverse reaction, the formation of one mole of water from hydrogen and oxygen equation d , is exothermic and releases The amount of energy is the same, but the sign of the energy change is different.
Another example is the relationship between energy change and the direction of a reaction is the formation and decomposition of glucose. This energy is released when fuels are burned. For plants, the purpose of photosynthesis is to create sugar, the food they need to live and grow. A preview of each game in the learning objective is found below.

They do this using a process called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants produce glucose from simple inorganic molecules - carbon dioxide and water - using light. Photosynthesis requires energy to drive the chemical reaction. Photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction. This means it cannot occur without energy from the Sun. The light required is absorbed by a green pigment called chlorophyll in the leaves. Chlorophyll is found in chloroplasts in plant cells , particularly the palisade and spongy mesophyll cells.
Plant leaves are the main photosynthetic organ , but other parts of the plant exposed to the light can develop chlorophyll and photosynthesise. The carbon dioxide required for photosynthesis comes from the air.
