While you're watching, look out for the different household items which can be used for exothermic and endothermic reactions. A Bunsen burner flame is produced by burning methane gas. The ...
Iron oxide, aluminum, and a catalyst are placed in a flowerpot. The reaction is extremely exothermic resulting in molten iron and aluminum dripping into sand below the flowerpot. The demonstration ...
Students investigate reactions which produce a gas, form a precipitate, and cause a color change. Students also explore endothermic and exothermic reactions and do an engineering activity to design a ...
All combustion reactions (such as the burning of coal) are exothermic. Incredibly, the reaction between iron and moist air that produces rust is a very exothermic process and generates lots of heat.
This is an exothermic reaction which releases a great deal of heat — over 2.5 times the amount generated by a similar amount of nitroglycerin. Naturally, the hydrogen gas generated is then free ...
