How is an endothermic reaction identified in an equation?
1 Answer
Well, how is an exothermic reaction represented?
Explanation:
We use the symbol
And certainly
And an example of spontaneous endothermic change...the which will probably be demonstrated in your lab..
The two solids are mixed, and we get a slurry of barium salt, a whiff of ammonia gas, and the sides of the flask ice up as the entropy-driven reaction extracts heat from the surroundings...
