  • CC15
    • exothermic and endothermic reactions
      • exothermic reactions are when heat is given out and the temp. goes up
        • energy transferred from stores of energy in bonds to surroundings
      • endothermic is heat is taken in and temp goes down
        • energy transferred from surroundings to stores of energy in bonds
          • these reactions can be shown by reaction profiles like on pg. 258
            • the higher the line the greater the energy stored
            • energy transferred from stores of energy in bonds to surroundings
      • precipitation reactions can be endothermic or exothermic
        • but displacement reactions and neutralization reactions are always exo
          • because energy is stored at the beginning than at the end
        • salt dissolving in water can be exo or endo
    • energy changes in reactions
      • activation energy in precipitation and neutralization reactions is lower than in combustion reaction
        • refer to pg. 260 for reaction profiles which include  activation energies
      • endo - energy transferred to reactant to break bonds
        • exo - energy transferred to surroundings as bonds form
          • exo making bonds       endo breaking bonds
      • refer to pg. 261 for calculations
        • if answer is a negative sign the reaction is exo if positive reaction is endo
