true or false
all chemical reactions need a certain amount of activation energy to get things started |
true
|
|
what is activation energy?
|
activation energy is the minimal amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction
|
|
what is exothermic chemical reaction?
|
exothermic chemical reaction occurs when the chemical reaction releases energy. products become warmer than the reactants.
|
|
true or false
products become warmer than the reactants in exothermic chemical reaction? |
true
|
|
true or false
exothermic chemical reaction occurs when the chemical reaction doesn't release energy |
false. it occurs when the chemical reaction releases energy
|
|
what is endothermic chemical reaction?
|
endothermic chemical reaction is a chemical reaction where energy is absorbed. Usually the products temperature are colder than the reactants.
