Answer the following question: You are given a new situation: John is conducting an experiment in his chemistry lab. His goal is to find a chemical solution that can regulate temperature. To that end, he considered two processes, process A and process B. Process A is an exothermic process, but process B is an endothermic process. and a hint : Some materials have negative heats of solution; the dissolution of one of these solutes in water is an exothermic process. Heat is released, causing a net increase in the temperature of the solution. Conversely, other substances have positive heats of solution. For example, the dissolution of potassium nitrate in water is an endothermic process. The resulting absorption of energy causes the solution to become colder. Calculations involving heats of solutions follow the same basic approach that we have used with other enthalpy problems. Please answer this question : In process B would the solution be warmer or colder than process A?
Answer:
colder
