Aim • To study the exothermic reaction and endothermic reaction
Problem statement • How can exothermic reaction and endothermic reaction can be identified
Hypothesis • Exothermic reaction releases heat, while endothermic reaction absorbs heat
Variable • Constant
:
– Initial temperature
• Manipulated : – Types of material • Sodium Hydroxide Crystals • Ammonium Chloride Crystals • Sodium Chloride Crystals
• Responding : – Final temperature
Materials • 1 spatula of – Sodium Hydorixe crystals (Beaker A)
• 1 spatula of – Ammonium Chloride crystals (Beaker B)
• 1 spatula of – Sodium Chloride crystals (Beaker C)
• Distilled water
Apparatus • 3 Beakers • 1 thermometer • 3 spatulas
Procedure/Method • About 20 ml of distilled water is poured into a beaker • The initial temperature of the distilled water is recorded • A spatula of Sodium Hydoxide Crystals is added in the beaker • The mixture is stirred • The final temperature is recorded • The experiment is repeated using Ammonium Chloride Crystals and Sodium Chloride Crystals
