You are to carry out a series of test tube reactions to find out what changes in heat energy occur. In each case, you
need to measure the temperature of the solution(s) before starting the experiment and then any temperature change
during the experiment. If the temperature rises, then the reaction is exothermic. If the temperature falls, then the
reaction is endothermic.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Some ammonium chloride is added to some barium hydroxide. The initial and final temperatures and any
temperature change are recorded.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Repeat the experiment above but add sodium hydrogen carbonate instead of calcium carbonate.
Initial Temperature = °C
Final Temperature = °C
Temperature Change = °C
This reaction is _________________, because the temperature ____________. This means that heat energy is
being ____________ ________.
Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions
An _____________________ reaction is a reaction which _____________ heat energy. This type of reaction can be
detected because there is a temperature ___________.
