Give an example of a reaction where the following are involved:
(a) Evolution of heat
(b) Absorption of heat
(c) High pressure is required
(a) C + O2 → CO2 + heat
(b) C + 2S heat−−→ CS2
(c) N2 + 3H2 above 200 atm ⇋ 2NH3
Why do chemical reaction involve absorption/evolution of heat
(a) What is nuclear fusion ? Explain with an example. Write the equation of the reaction involved (b) Why are very high temperatures required for fusion to occur ?
