The diagram above shows the reaction path of an exothermic reaction. The heat of reaction is represented by
The formula for the heat of reaction (ΔH) in an energy profile for an exothermic reaction is ΔH = H\(_{products}\) - H\(_{reactants}\). In an exothermic reaction, the products have a lower enthalpy than the reactants, resulting in a negative ΔH value, indicating heat is released.
In the energy profile, ΔH = H\(_{products}\) - H\(_{reactants}\) is represented by the part labelled IV
