Answer:

D) Molecule in the surrounding transfer kinetic energy when they collide with molecules in the surroundings

THIS QUESTION WAS BIIIGGGGG BRAIN TIME XD

I actually did this question by marking True and False

A and C ACTUALLY are the same statements so they cant be true because there cant be two choices right at the same time, so FALSE

B does not make any sense because in order to transfer or absorb energy one needs to collide with each other, they cant just have the energy by just walking into the situation they need to KIND OF struggle abit.

D seems correct because remember WHEN REACTANTS COLLIDE WITH EACHOTHER THEY GIVE OFF ENERGY TO THE SURROUNDING SO THE PRODUCT ALWAYS HAVE LESS ENERGY THAN SURROUNDING.

This implies here too so D is correct
