Endothermic Flashcards
1
Q
How can an endothermic reaction be identified
A
identified by detecting a temp decreases
2
Q
what does break bonds do?
A
absorb energy
3
Q
what type of reaction is breaking bonds?
A
endothermic reaction
4
Q
when does an endothermic reaction happen?
A
endothermic reaction happens when more energy is absorbed during bond breaking than released during bond breaking
5
Q
What type of reaction is intermolecular and covalent bond breaking?
A
endothermic
6
Q
what is the enthalpy change of endothermic reaction
A
Positive +
7
Q
how is an energy profile diagram like in an endothermic reaction
A
Enthalpy of product is higher than the enthalpy of reactants
8
Q
eg of endothermic reactions
A
Photosynthesis
thermal decomposition
