1. a student performs a reaction in a beaker by reaction silver nitrate with one long copper wire. the student’s thermometer changes from 27°c to 35°c. based on this, is this reaction endothermic, exothermic, or neither? explain your reasoning.
2. list three ways that the student could speed up the reaction in question 1

1.The reaction is exothermic .

2.

Explanation:

1.

As we observed , the reading in the thermometer changes from 27°C to 35°C.

Which means, heat is released when the reaction(displacement reaction) proceeds in the forward direction. - as in to raise the temperature .

Thus it is an exothermic reaction.

2.

According to Le-Chatelier's principle ,

In a reaction , as we increase the temperature or heat , the reaction moves in the direction that consumes or uses the heat.

it is b that is the answer.
