What happens to reactants during a chemical reaction?
A positive overall energy change means the reaction is endothermic.
Use displayed formulae or structures to identify the bonds in each molecule.
The overall change is $920 - 760 = extbf{+160 kJ/mol}$, so the reaction is endothermic.
Reactants are changed or used up during a chemical reaction.
