Q1
Which of the following processes is endothermic?
  1. Combustion of fuels
  2. Dissolving ammonium nitrate in water
  3. Respiration
  4. Condensation of steam

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following processes is endothermic?
  • Step 1: Understand what an endothermic process is. An endothermic process is one that absorbs heat from its surroundings.
  • Step 2: Identify the process in the question. The process mentioned is dissolving ammonium nitrate in water.
  • Step 3: Recognize that when ammonium nitrate dissolves in water, it takes in heat from the water, causing the temperature of the solution to drop.
  • Step 4: Conclude that since this process absorbs heat, it is indeed an endothermic process.
