Question

When zinc reacts with copper sulfate solution, zinc sulfate solution and copper are formed. (i) An experiment was carried out to measure the temperature change when zinc powder reactswith copper sulfate solution. Initial temperature of copper sulfate solution = 20 °Cfinal temperature of mixture after the reaction = 46 °CExplain what the temperature readings show about the type of heat change that occurs duringthis reaction

Answer 1

it is an endothermic reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because there is a rise in temperature from 20 to 46. this means that the reaction takes in heat from the suuroundings
