Its endothermic...

In my experiment, it went from 26 to 25 degrees celsius...

This is wrong it is exothermic. Potassium chloride is snow salt. it is used because not only does it react with the snow to create hydrochloric acide and potassium hydroxide (both with much lower freezing points) but, the EXOTHERMIC reaction also helps melt the snow

No, it is endothermic. The only reason we add salt to snow is to lower the melting point. If you're curious, dissolve as much KCl in a beaker as you can as quickly as you can. The water temperature will drop dramatically.

Yes, dissolving KClO3 in water is an endothermic reaction. I remember doing this back in 1967, and I remember being startled by the thin film of condensation of water on the outside of the test tube, along with the sudden drop in temperature of the solution.

it's exothermic because the q (heat) value is negative.
