Essential Chemistry for IGCSE - Chemical Reactions (Section 4 - No. 8)

In the reaction CuSO₄(s) + H₂O(l) ⇌ CuSO₄.5H₂O(s), the forward reaction is:
endothermic
exothermic
no heat is involved
cannot be determined without knowing ΔH

Explanation

When water is added to CuSO₄, the process releases heat which means the reaction is exothermic.
