उत्तर १

Reactions in which heat is released along with the formation of products are called exothermic chemical reactions.

Example: \[\ce{C(s) + O2(g) -> CO2(g) + Heat}\]
\[\ce{2H2(g) + O2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + Heat}\]

उत्तर २

A reaction in which heat is released is called an exothermic reaction. Burning of fuel is an example of exothermic reaction. When methane is burned, it gives heat along with carbon dioxide and water.

\[\ce{CH4(g) + 2O2(g) -> CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) + Heat}\]

On heating blue coloured powder of copper (II) nitrate, in a boiling tube, copper oxide (black), oxygen gas and a brown gas X is formed

  1. Write a balanced chemical equation of the reaction.
  2. Identify the brown gas X evolved.
  3.  Identify the type of reaction.
  4. What could be the pH range of aqueous solution of the gas X?

A metal nitrate 'A' on heating gives a metal oxide along with evolution of a brown coloured gas 'B' and a colourless gas, which helps in burning. Aqueous solution of 'A' when reacted with potassium iodide forms a yellow precipitate.

  1. Identify 'A' and 'B'
  2. Name the types of the reactions involved in the above statement.
