Exothermic And Endothermic Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
Exothermic reaction notes
A
- energy is released into the atmosphere
- bonds are made = reduce energy
- enthalpy is negative = reactants have more energy than products
- temp of surroundings increase
2
Q
Examples of exothermic reaction
A
- combustion
- freezing
- condensing
3
Q
Endothermic reactions notes
A
- energy is taken in from surroundings
- used to break bonds
- increase of energy in products
- enthalpy is positive
- temp of surrounding decreases
