Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the freezing of water is an exothermic or endothermic is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The internal energy of a process is the summation of the kinetic energy and potential energy associated with the process. In the case of a reaction, the change in internal energy $\left(\Delta E\right)$ is the difference in the energy of the product and reactant but at constant pressure, the $P\Delta V$ work gets eliminated and the change in enthalpy $\left(\Delta H\right)$ is measured.

In the case of a reaction, the change in enthalpy $\left(\Delta H\right)$ is the difference in the energy of the product and reactant. The general expression to calculate $\Delta H$ is,

$\Delta H=H_{\text{Product}}-H_{\text{Reactant}}$ (1)

Here,

$\Delta H$ is the change in enthalpy of the system.

$H_{\text{Product}}$ is the enthalpy of the products.

$H_{\text{Reactant}}$ is the enthalpy of the reactants.

Endothermic reactions are the reactions in which energy in the form of the heat or light is absorbed by the reactant for the formation of product. $H_{\text{Product}}$ is greater than $H_{\text{Reactant}}$ in the endothermic reactions.

Exothermic reactions are the reactions in which energy in the form of the heat or light is released with the product. $H_{\text{Reactant}}$ is greater than $H_{\text{Product}}$ in the exothermic reactions.
