Mathew Fleming · Answer 1

The correct answer is 150 kJ.

Explanation:

As per Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only change from one form to another.

If a chemical reaction absorbs 150 kJ and all the energy that is being absorbed is neither created nor destroyed, then it means all the energy absorbed comes from the surroundings (Air, wall of container etc).
