It has to do with the releasing of ethylene, which speeds up the ripening process
The answer is D, reactant.
Answer:-
A. A water molecule
Explanation:-
A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that retains all it's chemical properties.
Here H2O is a compound. So the smallest particle that will retain all the chemical properties and still remain water is water molecule.
Atoms Hydrogen and Oxygen both have different chemical properties from water H2O and are thus different.
Hydrogen peroxide is different molecule from water. So it is also not water.
It is an endothermic reaction because the products hAve more heat than the reactions so it was a gain of heat which makes the enthalpy Change positive !
