Explain the terms with examples :
* Endothermic reaction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The chemical reaction which are accompanied by absorption of heat are called endothermic reactions.
Example When calcium carbonate `(CaCO_3)` is strongly heated, it undergoes decomposition to form calcium oxide `(CaO)` and carbon dioxide `(CO_2)`
`underset("carbonate")underset("Calcium")(CaCO_(3(s)))+Heat rarrunderset("oxide")underset("Calcium")(CaO_((s)))+underset("dioxide")underset("Carbon")(CO_2uarr)`
