Answer:
e) The reaction proceeds with a net release of free energy.
Explanation:
An exergonic reaction is described in terms of free energy change. It is a reaction in which energy is freely released into the environment.
Exergonic reactions are spontaneous reactions and they can be either exothermic or endothermic in terms of heat transfer.
All exergonic reactions are spontaneous in nature owing to that fact that the free energy change is less than 0.
The free energy is a measure of the energy of a system that does useful work. When it is less than 0, the change is spontaneous or feasible.
