Answer:

A. The energy change will be positive as bonds are being broken.

Explanation:

The breaking of a bond is an endothermic process. An endothermic process is one in which energy must be absorbed in order for the process to take place.

In breaking a chemical bond,energy is absorbed as the bonding species are being separated from each other.

Hence, the energy change of this process shown will be positive as bonds are being broken.
