Is solid exothermic or endothermic?

A solid is itself neither endothermic or exothermic. However the phase change from liquid to solid will likely be exothermic.


Is dissolving Physical change or Chemical change''?

is dissolving a chemical or physical changeWell, it is not. Because you are not changing the chemical identity of the solid. It's still solid chemically and water chemically.


How does a solid turn into a liquid in terms of energy?

The change is endothermic.


The change in which ice absorbs energy and melts is?

An endothermic change; or a change of state. Endothermic because it absorbs energy. Change of state because ti changes from a solid to a liquid.


Solid forms into dissolved water is a chemical or physical change?

Dissolving in water is a physical change.


Is dissolving is an example of a change in the state?

Yes. It would go from solid to aqueous.


Is sublimation exothermic or endothermic?

Sublimation is an endothermic phase transition from solid to gaseous state.


Is dissolving salt in water a physical or chemical change and why how could you verify your answer?

physical change- solid to solution


Which change of phase is endothermic?

is Absorbs If you are asking if a change of state is why a reaction may be endothermic, is not always true. It simply depends on what the change of state is to and what it is from, ex: a change from liquid to solid is usually exothermic because it losses energy as the particles slow down and draw near to eachother... and the opposite occurs from solid to liquid (or liquid to gas).


Is dissolving a physical or chemical change?

The process of dissolving is a physical change. This is because the process can be simply reversed. With a chemical change a new substance is formed and the process can not be simply reversed.


Why does size affect a soluble solid from dissolving quicker?

Not usually size, its the surface area


Why is it thermodynamically possible for some ionic solids to dissolve even though the solution process is endothermic?

Even though the process is endothermic, the dissolving of the solid increases the entropy enough to more than compensate for the drop in temperature.
