Why do simple calorimeters give innacurate results for the energy released bu burning a fuel?
Because, much of it is used to heat the surroundings
1 of 6
Draw an endothermic energy level diagram
Reaction lower than product
2 of 6
Draw an exothermic energy level diagram
Reactant higher than product
3 of 6
How can you tell that a reaction is endothermic from an energy level diagram?
The reactant is lower than the product, energy is taken in
4 of 6
How can you tell that a reaction is exothermic from an energy level diagram?
The reactant is higher than the poduct, energy is released
