NEET Zoology (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Easy-Class 11
Consider a graph where the y-axis represents potential energy and the x-axis represents the progression of reaction states through a transition state. Which of the following statements best describes the energy difference between the substrate (S) and product (P) in an exothermic reaction?
A
The product (P) is at a lower energy level than the substrate (S).
B
The substrate (S) is at a lower energy level than the product (P).
C
The substrate (S) and product (P) are at the same energy level.
D
The energy levels of substrate (S) and product (P) cannot be determined.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In an exothermic reaction, the product (P) is at a lower energy level than the substrate (S), indicating that energy is released as the reaction progresses.
