What would likely happen if you were to touch the flask in which an endothermic reaction were occuring?

AThe flask would probably feel cooler than before the reaction started.
BThe flask would probably feel warmer than before the reaction started.
CThe flask would feel the same as before the reaction started.
Dnone of the above

Explanation: An endothermic reaction is a type of of chemical reaction in which energy is absorbed from the surroundings. The temperature of the surrounding decreases.

An Exothermic reaction is a type of of chemical reaction in which energy is released into the surrounding. The temperature of the surrounding increases.

When an endothermic reaction takes place in the flask, the heat is absorbed by the flask and thus the temperature of the surrounding (here the flask) will decrease which can be felt by touching the outside of the test tube. Thus the flask would appear colder.

20. Temperature is absolute while heat is relative. The direction of heat always travels to the warmer temperature of the object to the cooler one.

21. Ke=[C]^2/[A]^3[B}^2

22. A chemical reaction is spontaneous if an increase in the total entropy of the system and surroundings accompanies it.

Example:

4 Fe + 3 O 2 -> Fe 2 O 3

Enjoy guys ;)
