Diagram showing Enthalpy Change during an Endothermic Reaction

DEFINITION:
Reaction in which energy is given out to surrounding, decreasing energy level (temperature increases)

DEFINITION:
Reaction in which energy is taken in from surrounding, increasing energy level (temperature decreases)
EXAMPLE:

  • Burning
  • Neutralisation
  • Reaction between Water and Calcium Oxide
EXAMPLE:

  • Electrolysis
  • Thermal decomposition of Copper (II) Carbonate
  • Reaction between Acetic Acid and Sodium Carbonate
