    The document describes two chemical reactions - one between citric acid and baking soda, and one between magnesium and hydrochloric acid. Data on the initial and final temperatures of each reaction was collected. The citric acid/baking soda reaction showed a negative temperature change, indicating it was endothermic as the reactants absorbed energy from the surroundings. The magnesium/hydrochloric acid reaction showed a positive temperature change, identifying it as exothermic as energy was released to the surroundings.

    Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions

    Reaction 1 : Citric acid and baking soda Reaction 2: Magnesium and Hydrochloric acid Data was collected using a data logger Data table: Final Temperature (t2) C Initial Temperature (t1) C Temperature Change T C Processing the data: 2) Part 2 is exothermic. 3) Part 1 had a negative t value. This reaction was endothermic. This is because the temperature of the system decreased, suggesting that the reactant mixture absorbed the energy from its surroundings, making it endothermic. Part 1 25 28 -3 Part 2 38 33 +5
