(a) Combination of carbon and oxygen to form carbon monoxide
(b) Combination of nitrogen and oxygen to form nitrogen monoxide
(c) Combination of glucose and oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water
Combination of zinc and hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride and hydrogen

Question

One of the following is an endothermic reaction. This is:
(a)	Combination of carbon and oxygen to form carbon monoxide
(b)	Combination of nitrogen and oxygen to form nitrogen monoxide
(c)	Combination of glucose and oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water
Combination of zinc and hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride and hydrogen
