Answer #1

In given reaction, we can see that 686 Kcal is written on right side of the reaction, this means overall 686 Kcal energy is released in the reaction because it is written on the product side.

If the energy is written on left side of the reaction i.e. the reactant side, this means that overall energy is absorbed in the reaction.
