Question
Write notes : Endothermic Reaction

Answer

Areaction in which heatis either absorbed from the surrounding or has to be supplied continuously from outside is called as endothermic reaction. e.g. melting of ice, dissolution of potassium nitrate ins ater. During the process of dissolution of potassium nitrate (KNO3) in water, heat from thesurroundings is absorbed and therefore the temperature of the resulting solution is less. The process in which heat is absorbed from outside is called endothermic process.
