Answer
Correct option: A.
Enthalpy change.
Whether a reaction is endothermic or exothermic can be indicated by enthalpy change.
Enthalpy change is the difference in the enthalpy of products and the enthalpy of reactants.
A positive value of enthalpy change indicates endothermic reaction as the enthalpy of products is more than the enthalpy of reactants.
A negative value of enthalpy change indicates exothermic reaction as the enthalpy of products is less than the enthalpy of reactants.
