Endothermic Reaction Solid barium hydroxide octahydrate (Ba(OH)2*8H2O) and ammonium thiocyanate (NH4SCN) are mixed in a beaker, which is then placed on a few drops of water on a small board. The reaction that occurs is highly endothermic.

Sulfuric Acid into Water and Ice When sulfuric acid is mixed with water the temperature rises. When sulfuric acid is added to ice, the temperature rises at first, but as the ice melts, the temperature falls.
Thermochemistry : CalcHHessLaw (8 Variations)
The industrial process for making sulfuric acid has three steps. Using the data given, calculate the enthalpy change for the overall reaction for the process (the equation is given below).
2S(s) + 3O2(g) + 2H2O(l)2H2SO4(l)
Data:
S(s) + O2(g) SO2(g)
Hrxn = -296.83 kJ
2SO3(g)O2(g) + 2SO2(g)
Hrxn = -198.2 kJ
SO3(g) + H2O(l)H2SO4(l)
Hrxn = -227.72 kJ

Sulfuric acid is added to water in a beaker and the resulting solution is much warmer than either the water or acid was initially.
Identify the following items as being part of the system or the surroundings, and indicate whether the process is exothermic or endothermic.
The Correlation of Binary Acid Strengths with Molecular Properties in First-Year ChemistryTravis D. Fridgen This article replaces contradictory explanations for the strengths of different binary acids in first-year chemistry textbooks with a single explanation that uses a BornHaber cycle involving homolyic bond dissociation energies, electron affinities, and ion solvation enthalpies to rationalize trends in the strengths of all binary acids. Fridgen, Travis D. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1220.

"Mysteries" of the First and Second Laws of ThermodynamicsRubin Battino Over the years the subject of thermodynamics has taken on an aura of difficulty, subtlety, and mystery. This article discusses common misconceptions and how to introduce the topic to students. Battino, Rubin. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 753.

Why Chemical Reactions Happen (James Keeler and Peter Wothers)John Krenos By concentrating on a limited number of model reactions, this book presents chemistry as a cohesive whole by tying together the fundamentals of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and quantum chemistry, mainly through the use of molecular orbital interpretations. Krenos, John. J. Chem. Educ.2004, 81, 201.
