Will the recorded temperature change for an exothermic reaction performed in a glass calorimeter be greater or less that?

The recorded temperature change for an exothermic reaction performed in a glass calorimeter is less than the Styrofoam cup calorimeter. This is because the glass will conduct heat away more than the Styrofoam.

How do you figure out how much heat is absorbed in a reation?
heat is treated as a reactant or a product
Is the Bunsen burner.....?
an exothermic reaction or and enothermic reaction
What is the criteria in terms of temperature changes for exothermic and endothermic reactions?
Endothermic reactions draw heat from the reactants / products and the environment, so they tend to get cooler as the reaction proceeds. Exothermic reactions release heat to the reactants / products and the environment, so they tend to get hotter as the reaction proceeds.
When a white powder is added to a liquid in a beaker at room temperature the beaker becomes too hot to touch What kind of reaction is this an example of?
Exothermic?
Is the breakdown of glucose endothermic or exothermic?
Exothermic. Glucose is one of the major source of energy of the body and can only act as an energy source because its breakdown into CO2 is an exothermic reaction.
A neutralization reaction was carried out in a calorimeter The temperature of the solution rose from 20.0 C to 25.6 C Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?
Exothermic
How do you know that a sealed calorimeter is a closed system?
There is an exothermic reaction that occurs when a closed system exists when using a sealed calorimeter. This exothermic reaction can be identified when energy is being released into the environment.
Can Energy be measured directly with a calorimeter?
Yes energy can be measured directly with a calorimeter. The calorimeter will measure the temperature as it changes in a reaction.
When the temperature changes cause of a reaction is it exothermic or endothermic?
It is exothermic
When an exothermic reaction occurs in a water solution what happens to the temperature of the solution?
The temperature rises. An "exothermic" reaction releases heat energy in the process.
If the temperature after a reaction is higher is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?
If the temperature rises, the reaction is EXOTHERMIC where the system (reaction) is giving off heat to the surroundings (water, beaker, test tube, etc.).
When hydrochloric acid neutralizes sodium hydroxide the temperature increases is this exothermic or endothermic?
When the temperature increases as a result of reaction, as specified here, the reaction is exothermic.
Which piece of evidence would prove that a reaction is exothermic?
All you need is a thermometer. If the temperature rises as the reaction goes to completion, then the reaction is exothermic. If the temperature decreases, then it's endothermic.
How is exothermic reaction identified?
In an exothermic reaction heat is released and it is identified by increase in temperature, the material or vessel in which reaction is carried out becomes heated.
Is the reaction between sodium and water endothermic?
it is exothermic because heat is liberated to the surrounding during the chemical reation
What do you use to determine if the reaction is exothermic?
Temperature probe
Effects of temperature and pressure on exothermic and endothermic reaction?
An increase in temperature favours an endothermic reaction over an exothermic one as an endothermic reaction takes in the energy from the higher temperature more easily than the exothermic reaction gives out even more energy to the surroundings. Therefore an increase in temperature increases the level of completion and viability of an endothermic reaction, and the opposite for an exothermic reaction. An increase in pressure favours any reaction that forms fewer molecules from more molecules. It does not necessarily favour an exothermic or an endothermic reaction as it depends on the number of molecules on either side of the reaction. An endothermic reaction involves the breaking of bonds to a greater extent than an exothermic reaction, so an increase in pressure would, in a lot of cases, favour the exothermic reaction more than the endothermic reaction.
