Summary Introduction

To determine: The differences between endergonic and exergonic reactions with regard to the rate and direction of reactions.

Introduction: In a chemical reaction, energy can be consumed or released during the course of the reaction. Energy consuming reactions can be referred to as endergonic reactions whereas energy-releasing reactions are called exergonic reactions.
