1. Energy Changes. Some reactions release heat energy. Give 2 examples.
Where might these reactions be useful
Name a reaction in your body that releases heat energy.
What do we call reactions that release heat energy.
Why do you think some reactions release heat energy?

2. BIG PICTURE
Why are Fossil Fuels so fantastic and how do we find alternatives for when they run out?

3. You will be learning about reactions that give out energy.
By the end of the lesson you will be able to: Grade 6– Describe the difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions and categorize different reactions. Grade 7 – Explain why some reactions release energy. Grade 8 – Explain what happens in a chemical reaction in terms of bonds breaking and making and how this results in some reactions some reactions giving out Energy and others taking in Energy.

4. Exothermic reactions.

5. Endothermic Reactions

6. Results Reactants Always add liquid first Temperature (o C) Start end
change
hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide
hydrochloric acid and anhydrous sodium carbonate
ethanoic acid and solid ammonium carbonate
distilled water and solid ammonium nitrate
hydrochloric acid and magnesium ribbon.

7. Grade 6
In your own words, describe what exothermic and endothermic reactions are and give examples of each. Using the experiments

8. Energy is contained within chemical bonds. These bonds must be broken
Energy is contained within chemical bonds. These bonds must be broken. This requires energy

9. New bonds must now be made. This process releases energy.

10. Energy level profile Energy Extent of reaction (time)
Copy and complete the diagram.
Explain in your own words what is happening at each stage.
Include ideas why exothermic reactions release heat energy

11. Demonstrate Methane Bubbles

12. Grade 7 and 8
Under you diagram, explain in terms of bond energies why the exothermic reaction of burning methane releases heat energy.
