Determine whether each of the following is exothermic or endothermic and indicate the sign of δh.
a. dry ice evaporating
b. a sparkler burning
c. the reaction that occurs in a chemical cold pack often used to ice athletic injuries

Explanation:

There are two type of reaction possible , i.e. , exothermic and endothermic reaction ,

Exothermic reaction -

The type of reaction in which energy in the form of heat or light is released , is known as exothermic reaction ,

The reaction mixture usually get heated after the reaction .( temperature increases ) .

The sign of ΔH of an exothermic reaction is negative .

Similarly ,

Endothermic reaction -

The type of reaction in which energy is absorbed in the form of heat is known as endothermic reaction .

The reaction mixture usually get cooled after the reaction .( temperature decreases ) .

The sign of ΔH of an Endothermic  reaction is positive .

a. dry ice evaporating ,

Endothermic reaction , ΔH = positive .

b. a sparkler burning ,

Exothermic reaction ΔH = negative .

c. the reaction that occurs in a chemical cold pack often used to ice athletic injuries

Endothermic reaction , ΔH = positive .
