True or False: Combustion reactions are always exothermic.
True
Fill in the blank: In a neutralisation reaction, an acid reacts with a __________ to produce salt and water.
base
What is the primary characteristic of an exothermic reaction?
It releases heat to the surroundings.
Multiple Choice: Which of the following is an example of a precipitation reaction? A) Burning of wood B) Mixing vinegar and baking soda C) Mixing silver nitrate and sodium chloride
C) Mixing silver nitrate and sodium chloride
What is produced during a neutralisation reaction?
Salt and water
True or False: In an endothermic reaction, the products have higher energy than the reactants.
True
What is the general formula for combustion reactions?
Fuel + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
Fill in the blank: Precipitation reactions typically occur when two __________ solutions are mixed.
aqueous
What is the main difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions?
Exothermic reactions release heat while endothermic reactions absorb heat.
