What is an Exothermic reaction?
A reaction that gives out energy to the surrounding area
1 of 6
What is an Endothermic reaction?
A reaction that takes in energy from the surrounding area.
2 of 6
Define the term ’standard enthalpy change’ of a reaction?
The heat energy change measured under standard conditions.
3 of 6
What is the equation used to calculate heat energy change from experimental data?
q = mcΔT
4 of 6
For an endothermic reaction, is the ΔH value positive or negative and why?
ΔH = positive because the products are higher in energy than the reactants and the heat is absorbed from surrounding areas
5 of 6
State one way you can find the Mean Rate of reaction?
quantity of reactant used divided by time taken or quantity of product formed divided by time taken
