its an endothermic reaction, because the it broke the bonds of the calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in order to make calcium oxide (CaO) and Carbon dioxide (CO2).

it results in a exothermic reaction


What is a sentence for the term endothermic reaction?

When you heat calcium carbonate, to make it under go thermal decomposition, this is an endothermic reaction, because you are driving heat into the calcium carbonate.


What is the word equation for the endothermic reaction which occurs in lime kiln?

Calcium carbonate + heat= Calcium oxide + carbon dioxide is the word equation for the endothermic reaction which occurs in lime kiln.

Both beacuse in such coditions it can be endothermic or exothermic.


Is an ionic compound exothermic?

A compound is never exothermic. Its reaction with some other substance is endothermic or exothermic like when calcium oxide reacts with water large amount of heat is evolved.


Is obtaining lime from limestone exothermic?

The hydratation of concentrated OH- and Na+ ions (by dilution) is exothermic, it gives an energetically prefered state of matter.(Hydratation is the extra surrounding of the ions by polar water molecules of the solvent).


Why does the temperature rise when hydrochloric acid is mixed with sodium hydroxide?

This is an EXOTHERMIC reaction. If you hold the reaction vessel it will feel warm. For all reactions there is an energy change. In this case when the sodium ions and the hydrogen ions associate with water molecules, there is a 'bond' forming. Bond forming releases energy, hence the heat/warmth. Conversely, when you want to break a bond e.g. calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide, you heat the calcium carbonate, you a driving in heat to break the bonds. It is Endothermic.


What chemical reaction takes place when drops of cold water are added to a white solid formed by heating calium calcium carbonate?

Exothermic reaction.


Is the reaction of calcium chloride to ice a endothermic or exothermic reaction?

when CaCl2 is added to ice it becomes ionized slowly the ions become surrounded by water molecules the secondary types of bonding is responsible to evolve the heat so it is an exothermic reaction.


What are endothermic reatcions?

Endothermic reactions are reactions in which the reactants have less energy than the products. This means that the reactants will require heat, in order for a reaction to take place. After an endothermic reaction occurs, the surrounding area around the reaction will feel cooler. examples are 1) electrolysis. 2) thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate in a furnace. 3) the reaction of ethanoic acid and sodium carbonate.
