  2. The reaction is exothermic.
  3. No heat exchange occurs.
  4. The system is at equilibrium.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a calorimetry experiment, what does a negative ΔH indicate?
  • Step 1: Understand what ΔH means. ΔH represents the change in enthalpy, which is a measure of heat content in a system.
  • Step 2: Recognize that a negative ΔH value means that the heat content of the system decreases.
  • Step 3: Realize that when heat is released from the system, it goes into the surroundings.
  • Step 4: Conclude that a reaction that releases heat is called an exothermic reaction.
