Which of the following are exothermic reactions and which are endothermic?

(a) The explosion of dynamite is:
                        exothermic
                                  or
                        endothermic

(b) The dissociation of calcium chloride in water is:
                         exothermic
                                   or
                         endorthermic

Solutions

Expert Solution

(a) In explosion of dynamite energy is given off in the form of heat and light . Since energy is released it is an EXOTHERMIC reaction.

(b) The Dissociation of Calcium chloride will be an ENDOTHERMIC reaction, as it takes energy to break the lattice structure.

Note:- Only dissociation of Calcium chloride is ENDOTHERMIC, as they dissociates they form bonding with water molecules which is an EXOTHERMIC reaction. Overall reaction is EXOTHERMIC as energy is overall released.
