Select the reaction which is not an exothermic reaction?
CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(g)
CaO(s) + H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq)
CaCO3 → CaO + CO2
C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(aq) + 6H2O(l) → 6CO2(aq) + 12H2O(l)
CaCO3 → CaO + CO2 is an endothermic reaction.
Consider the reactions:
(a) 6 CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) → C6 H12 O6(aq) + 6O2(g)
(b) O3(g) + H2O2(l) → H2O(l) + 2O2(g)
Why it is more appropriate to write these reactions as:
(a) 6CO2(g) + 12H2O(l) → C6 H12 O6(aq) + 6H2O(l) + 6O2(g)
(b) O3(g) + H2O2 (l) → H2O(l) + O2(g) + O2(g)
Also suggest a technique to investigate the path of the above (a) and (b) redox
reactions.
