What do you understand by exothermic reaction and endothermic reaction? Give one example of each type.

Answer»

Solution :Exothermic reactions : Reactions which evolves HEAT are known to be as exothermic reactions. Evolution of heat PRODUCED can be in the form of `.+. sign or DeltaH` in - sign along with product.
`C_((s))+O_(2(g))to CO_(2(g))+393.5 kJ`
`H_(2(g))+(1)/(2)O_(2(g)) to H_(2)O_((L)),`
`DeltaH=-285.8 kJ"mol"^(-1)`
Endothermic reactions : Reactions which absorbs heat are called endothermic reactions.
Absorbed heat can be is shown as - sign or in terms of `DeltaH` with a+ singn E.,
`C_((s))+H_(2)O_((g)) to CO_((g))+H_(2(g))-131.4 kJ`
`N_(2(g))+3H_(2(g)) to 2NH_(3(g)), DeltaH=+92.4 kJ mol^(-1)`
