(a)
Interpretation : The given reaction condition should be identified as exothermic or endothermic reaction.
Concept Introduction : A
(b)
Interpretation : The given reaction condition should be identified as exothermic or endothermic reaction.
Concept Introduction : A chemical reaction can be classified as endothermic and exothermic based on energy change. An endothermic reaction is the reaction which absorbs some heat during reaction whereas during exothermic reaction, heat or energy is released and product is formed.
