Answer:
Identify each of the following as endothermic or exothermic.
a. Water in a pond evaporates.
b. Methane gas burns on a stovetop.
c. Water freezes to form ice.
d. Energy flows from the system to the surroundings.
e. Energy flows from the surroundings to the system.
Explanation:
An exothermic reaction is the one in which heat energy is released.
An endothermic reaction is one in which heat energy is absorbed.
a. Water in a pond evaporates.
This process absorbs heat energy.
Hence, this is an example of an endothermic process.
b. Methane gas burns on a stovetop and release heat energy and hence this is an example of an exothermic reaction.
c. Water freezes to form ice.
In this process heat energy is released.So this is an example of exothermic reaction.
d. Energy flows from the system to the surroundings.
That means heat energy is released into the surroundings.
So, this is an example of exothermic process.
e. Energy flows from the surroundings to the system.
That means energy is absorbed by the system.
So, it is an endothermic process.
