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).

Which phase changes are endothermic?

Based on chemical properties exothermic phase changes are those that release energy. The exothermic phase changes are gas--> liquid, liquid --> solid, and gas--> solid. Looking at a phase diagram if you are going up the "stairs" the conversions require energy going down the "stairs" energy is released.


What are the 3 phases of energy metabolism?

The three phases of energy metabolism are: Glycolysis, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate. Citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), where pyruvate is further broken down to produce energy molecules. Electron transport chain, where energy molecules are used to generate ATP, the cell's energy currency.


Which phases of a typical bacterial growth curve illustrates a log change in cell number. Oviously log or growth phase is logarithmic. Is the death phase a negative log change?

The log phase of a bacterial growth curve represents exponential growth in cell number. It is followed by the stationary phase, where cell growth stabilizes. The death phase shows a decrease in cell number, but it may not necessarily follow a negative logarithmic trend.


A chemical reaction that requires a net input of energy?

An example of a chemical reaction that requires a net input of energy is photosynthesis. In this process, plants use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The energy from sunlight is required to drive this reaction and is absorbed by chlorophyll in plant cells.


What effect does the removal of heat have on the equilibrium position?

The temperature of a reaction will entirely change th equilibrium position for any given reaction. If I'm right, as you increase the temperature, the equilibrium shifts closer to the endothermic reaction as there is more heat to consume. It may also, of course, change other properties of the substances involved in the reaction, but that depends on the chemicals.

How could you determine if a phase change in endothermic?

An endothermic phase change can be determined by observing a decrease in temperature during the process. As the substance absorbs heat from its surroundings to transition to a different phase, its temperature will drop. Additionally, the enthalpy change value for the phase change will be positive, indicating that energy is being absorbed.


Which of the following phase changes is not correctly paired with the sign of its change in enthalpy?

The phase change of sublimation is not correctly paired with the sign of its change in enthalpy. Sublimation involves the transition from solid to gas phase without passing through the liquid phase, and it is an endothermic process where heat is absorbed. The other phase changes—melting (endothermic), freezing (exothermic), vaporization (endothermic), and condensation (exothermic)—are correctly paired with the sign of their change in enthalpy.


Which phase change is endothermic?

The 3 types of endothermic phase changes are the movement from solid to liquid, the movement from liquid to gas, and the movement form gas to plasma. Endothermic is the absorbing of heat.


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.


What statement about the energy of a phase change is true?

Melting is an endothermic change, because ice absorbs energy from its surroundings as it melts.


Is vaporation a endothermic change?

Vaporization is an endothermic change.


Is sublimation exothermic or endothermic?

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


What type of phase change does a substance absorb energy from its surroundings?

When a substance absorbs energy from its surroundings, it undergoes a phase change known as endothermic. This results in an increase in the substance's internal energy, allowing it to transition from one state to another (e.g., from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas) by absorbing heat from its surroundings.


A change in which energy is taken in?

endothermic change


How does an endothermic process differ from an exothermic process?

An endothermic phase change is when the substance absorbs energy from its surroundings (melting, vaporization).In an exothermic phase change the substance releases energy to its surroundings (freezing, condensation)..


What are the phase changes that are endothermic?

For example melting or boiling.


Is sublimation a phase change?

Sublimationis the process of transition of a substance from the solid phase to the gas phase without passing through an intermediate liquid phase. Sublimation is an endothermic phase transitionthat occurs at temperatures and pressures below a substance's triple point
