    True

    Explanation:

    In a chemical reaction, if the reactants have more potential energy than the products have, the extra energy is released to the surroundings as heat. This type of reaction is exothermic.

    The activation energy is the difference between the energy of the reactants and the maximum energy (the activated complex).

    The activated complex is the complex that exists as the bonds in the products are forming and the bonds in the reactants are breaking. This Complex exists when the energy of the system is at its maximum.
