One of the following is an endothermic reaction. This is:
-
combination of carbon and oxygen to form carbon monoxide.
-
combination of nitrogen and oxygen to form nitrogen monoxide
-
combination of glucose and oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water
-
combination of zinc and hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride and hydrogen.

B
Correct answer
Explanation
(A) This is an incomplete combustion reaction so energy will be released.
(B)Combination of nitrogen and oxygen to form Nitrogen Monoxide-
Heat is required for this process.
So $N _2 + O _2\rightarrow2NO-180.6KJ$ is an endothermic reaction.Heat is required for this process.
(C) combination of glucose and oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water is a combustion reaction.So energy will be released.
(D)in a combination of zinc and hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride and hydrogen heat is released.
so correct answer is (B).
