Energy changes

Cards (6)

  • What type of reaction transfers energy to the surroundings?
    Exothermic
  • What type of reaction transfers energy from the surroundings?
    Endothermic
  • What type of reaction is this?
    Exothermic
  • What type of reaction is this?
    Endothermic
  • What is the activation energy?
    The minimum amount of energy that particles need to react
  • How do you calculate the energy change?
    • Overall energy transfer = energy required to break bonds - energy required to make bonds
    • Positive = Endothermic
    • Negative = Exothermix
