Endothermic/Exothermic Rxn’s
Lesson Outline
In today’s tutoring session, we reviewed the differences between endothermic and exothermic reactions, as well as their similarities. We also discussed enthalpy and how it changes depending on the type of reaction. We looked at enthalpy change graphs that showed ‘Delta H’ in addition to exothermic or endothermic implications.
