Which of the following are exothermic processes?
1. Reaction of water with quick lime
2. Dilution of an acid
3. Evaporation of water
4. Sublimation of camphor (crystals)

A

1 and 2

B

2 and 3

C

1 and 4

D

3 and 4

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

When quick lime reacts with water, a large amount of heat is released along with the formation of calcium hydroxide. Similarly, the process of dissolving an acid or base in water is a highly exothermic reaction. Evaporation of water and sublimation of camphor are endothermic reactions.
