Enthalpy change

#6
Front (Question)

Why is it important to know if a reaction is exothermic or endothermic?

Back (Answer)

Any one of: • If reactions are exothermic, heat will need to be removed • If reactions are endothermic, heat will need to be supplied • So that chemists can create conditions to maximise yield
