6.1.1 If the reaction produces heat (increases the temperature of the surroundings) then it’s exothermic. If it decreases the temp (i.e. absorbs heat) then it’s endothermic. Also‚ the yield of an equilibrium reaction which is exothermic will be increased if it occurs at low temps‚ and so for endothermic reactions at high temperatures. 6.1.2 Exothermic : A reaction which produces heat. Endothermic : A reaction which absorbs heat. Enthalpy of reaction : The change in internal energy (H) through

The Stroop Effect by psychology terms is the demonstration of reaction time while performing a task. The findings of The Stroop Effect demonstrate how difficult it can be to only concentrate at one thing. J. Ridley Stroop conducted two experiments himself. In the first experiment‚ he compared time
