Eloum Mohammed Project: Thermal Reactions (Exothermic and Endothermic)
Storyboard Text
- There are two Thermal reactions we will be talking about today. Endothermic reactions and Exothermic reactions.
- Endothermic reactions is energy being absorbed while Exothermic reactions is energy being released.
- Think about cooking an egg. It absorbs heat from a stove meaning it would be an Endothermic reaction.
- Absorb means to take in something. In this case it is heat being absorbed
- Exothermic on the other hand is like a campfire. The burning of the wood gets released in the form of heat making the surrounding area hotter.
- To release something is to set something free. In this case the wood becoming heat is the thing being released.
- A catalyst for Endothermic reactions can be heating it up.
- But when I mean "heat up" I don't mean anything this crazy!
- A catalyst is something that will speed up the process of a chemical reaction.
- And like Endothermic reactions, you shouldn't do this in a snowstorm or you might catch a cold!
- A catalyst for Exothermic reactions on the other hand is cooling it down.
- "Thermal energy is Heat"
- Thermal energy is energy being made and measured by heat.
- Believe it or not Thermal energy isn't actually heat itself.
